What this tool does
Sorts environment variable assignments alphabetically while keeping leading comments with their variables.
The tool reads the file line by line, applies format-specific rules, and returns a practical report or consistently formatted copy.
Always test configuration changes in a safe environment before production use.
Example

Use cases
- Pre-commit configuration review
- Cleaning copied configuration snippets
- Spotting common mistakes before deployment
Tips for better output
- Keep a backup of the original file.
- Use spaces instead of tabs where the format expects indentation.
- Confirm environment-specific values separately.
Processing details
All processing is deterministic and performed locally. No account, upload, or network request is required.
This lightweight browser tool does not execute containers, contact clusters, or start web servers.
Frequently asked questions
Does this tool upload my configuration?
No. Processing happens locally in your browser, and the text is not sent to a server.
Can it replace the official parser?
It catches common formatting and structural problems, but a project-specific parser or deployment test remains the final authority.
Will comments be preserved?
Yes. Comments are retained, although surrounding whitespace may be normalized.
Does it work with large files?
It works well for typical configuration files. Very large files may take longer in the browser.
What should I do after a clean result?
Review the output, then test it with the native tool or application before deploying.
