This is something that took me nearly a year to get working. Not full time obviously, but every now and then I would make another attempt at getting it working after the trauma of the previous attempt had faded. None of the examples that people had provided worked for me, and some were out dated and no longer applied. And of course the AWS docu*entation provided no help whatsoever. I decided to share my configuration in the hope that it will help someone else. Here is a list of the technologies I am using: It seems like such a basic task – how to sort a list of strings alphabetically. The easiest way, and what you’d probably stumble across first, is a simple sort function: Or using the sort() function and pas*ing a compare function: arr.sort(function(a, b){     if(a.name < b.name) return -1; quickly run into issues when numbers get involved where 10 can appear before 2 etc. And then there are special characters and languages other than English – what determines where they appear in an alphabetical list? It’s not easy to find this answer – is it as*umed knowledge? I quickly discovered a bunch of highly complicated sorting functions that people had glued together on Stack Overflow. But I thought surely there is a simpler way for such a basic and common task. which provides tools for sorting text (among many other things) in a specific language, and taking into account letter case, numbers and You first need to create a Collator object using Intl.Collator: let collator = new Intl.Collator(undefined, { numeric: true, sensitivity: 'base' }); A locale can be provided as the first argument (where I have used ‘undefined’) to specify a language other than the default (see Once we have the collator we can use its ‘compare’ function in the Array.sort: The following technique is something that I found template strings in ES6 to be quite useful for. I needed to generate XML chunks (as a string) where each node had a unique ID every time the XML was generated.
