About this JSON Sort Keys

JSON Sort Keys reorders object keys alphabetically so the JSON output is consistent across runs and easier to compare between versions.

Nested objects are typically sorted recursively while arrays keep their original element order. Sorting changes presentation only, not the underlying meaning of JSON objects.

FAQ

Is my text uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Nothing you paste is sent to a server.

Can I use this tool offline?

After the page loads once, it will typically keep working offline (unless you hard refresh with no cache).

Do you store my input?

No. Your input stays in your browser. Only optional preferences like theme or language may be stored.

What input formats are supported?

Any plain text. You can paste text directly into the input box.

Does sorting keys change the meaning of JSON?

No. JSON object key order is not semantically meaningful. Sorting only changes the order you see.

Are nested objects sorted too?

Yes. Most implementations sort keys recursively for nested objects.

Are arrays reordered?

No. Arrays remain in the same element order. Only object keys are sorted.
