Frequently asked questions
Why sort JSON keys?
▾
Sorted keys make diffs cleaner — when two JSON files have the same keys in different orders, a sorted version produces minimal diffs. It also makes large objects easier to scan manually.
Is the sort case-sensitive?
▾
Yes. Uppercase letters come before lowercase in ASCII order (A < Z < a < z). Enable case-insensitive sorting if you want mixed-case keys sorted alphabetically regardless of case.
Does it sort nested objects too?
▾
Yes. The sort is applied recursively — all nested objects at any depth have their keys sorted as well.
