Sorting blocks on a page

Feedback Feature Requests

I would love to be able to sort blocks like you can in Roam, or at least to be able to set the sort order of a block using CSS.

For example, it would be great to be able to have items marked DONE automatically sort to the bottom of all other blocks on the same level. I tried messing with making .block-children a flexbox, so I could do this using the order property, but it caused all sorts of other layout issues, so I didn’t pursue it too far.

I’d want to highlight how essential such a sort feature appears to be. Sometimes one needs to keep track of e.g. alphabetically sorted things. One shouldn’t need to do (and maintain) this by hand.

It also seems a basic feature to me, so much so that I don’t think it should be a plugin.

A very simple version (sorting all children alphabetically) would go a long way.

Any way this could be added to the roadmap?
