Frequently Asked Questions
- How are lines of equal length ordered?
- Equal-length lines keep their relative input order (the sort is stable in modern JavaScript engines), so ties do not scramble your list.
- Why sort lines by length?
- Organising CSS selectors or import statements aesthetically, finding the longest log lines or URLs, and spotting outliers in data where unusually long entries usually mean malformed rows.
- Is my data private when I use this tool?
- Yes. This tool runs entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript — nothing you type is transmitted to, logged by, or stored on any server. You can safely process confidential text, tokens, or code.
