About this Mod
Chai's Inventory Sorter
Chai's Inventory Sorter is an inventory sorter mod (wow!) that complements the vanilla UI. It not only lets you sort your inventories, but it also lets you perform a couple of handy inventory management shortcuts, like restock, quick stack, loot all, and deposit all. It comes with a great default sorting config, but you can change it up to your liking with its powerful tag-based sorting.

Usage
- Press the sort inventory or sort container buttons to sort your inventory or the container.
- Press the restock button to refill your stacks from the opened container.
- Press the quick stack button to move stacks from your inventory that already exist in the container.
- Hold shift and hover over the restock or quick stack buttons to access the loot all and deposit all buttons that will take or deposit all items.
