SortME

by foxycek69

SortME is a Fabric inventory sorter that puts a button in the inventory screen to tidy items and merge identical stacks with one click.

What it does

Clicking the sort button in an inventory screen rearranges its items and merges stacks of the same kind into full slots. The same action also works on chests, barrels and other storage blocks, and a developer command is included for testing. Sorting replaces the vanilla inventory behavior, so no extra key or menu is needed to use it.

The mod is lightweight and is described as running well on low-power machines such as handheld computers. A basic configuration menu is included, and the author notes some support for other mods, with compatibility with other inventory mods presented as a goal rather than a verified list. SortME needs the Fabric API to be present, although the author reports it works on the client without issue.

Files are published for Fabric only, for eight game versions in total, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.8 as the latest file, released on 2025-09-11. The mod runs on the client alone, so players install it and servers do not need it. The code is covered by All rights reserved.
