I usually end up accumulating loads of files in downloads which are a mix of zips, code, images, libraries etc.

SortAnything: Oraganize your Hoarded Stuff
Scripts/SoftwareWhy You Need SortAnything
- Cluttered folders slowing you down? If you’ve ever stared at a messy folder full of downloads, documents, or images, paralyzed by the thought of sorting it all, SortAnything simplifies the process. Just select your files, set up your categories, and start sorting—file by file, as fast as you can decide.
- Ever wanted to assign files to folders just by pressing a key? With SortAnything, you can. Instead of dragging and dropping, assign files on the fly with hotkeys or simple buttons. Save time, reduce mistakes, and keep your focus on the content.
- Need previews for images and text files before you sort? See what you’re moving before you move it. Never accidentally shuffle the wrong file into the wrong place again.
- Want to pick up where you left off? Life happens. With session management, you can save your progress and return later—no need to start over from scratch.
- Prefer to export your sorted list instead of moving actual files? Get your organized list as JSON, CSV, TXT, or HTML—perfect for reports, analysis, or sharing.
How It Works
- Choose Your Files: Select from a folder, clipboard, CSV, or text file.
- Set Up Your Categories: Create up to 10 personalized buckets (categories) with unique names and colors. Make them fit your workflow.
- Sort Fast: Files appear one by one. Assign each to a category with a single key press or click.
- Preview and Confirm: See images and text file previews before you move anything.
- Finish Your Way: Move files to folders, or export your sorted list for other uses.
- Save Your Progress: Stop and restart your session anytime—no lost work, no hassle.
