Inventory Sort
by wzz
Inventory Sort is a Forge utility that tidies the player inventory and moves stacks between containers with a key press and a modifier click.
What it does
Pressing R sorts the player inventory, and the key can be rebound in the settings under the organize items entry. Holding Space while left-clicking an item moves it instantly between the player inventory and an open container. The mod targets Minecraft 1.20.1 and is published only for Forge, with its source code available under the Apache License 2.0. Because of technical limits, it must be installed on both the client and the server for multiplayer to work properly.
Key features
Sort inventory with a key
A single key press sorts the items in the player inventory, and the binding can be changed in the controls settings.
Instant item transfer
Space combined with a left click moves stacks instantly between the player inventory and an open container.
Organize items key
The organize action has its own key entry, so sorting can be reassigned without editing any file.

How it compares
Smooth Swapping - Forge Updated is also a Forge mod for 1.20.1, but it is client-side only and released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so it is not open source. Reasonable Sorting runs on Fabric, Forge and Quilt for 1.15 – 1.19.2, and only the client needs it; its license is the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, which makes it open source.
