Sort Spotify playlists randomly, by release date, etc.

I sometimes create Spotify playlists where order of tracks doesn’t have any special meaning, yet if you share it with people most will listen to it in order. For situations like this I wanted to be able to sort a playlist in random order and save it. Other times I wanted to sort tracks in chronological (release date) order. And then maybe have a playlist of old and new tracks that plays new-old-new-old songs.

None of this is possible with Spotify’s official clients, so when I was bored for a minute I decided to whip something up in a few hours. As usual, it took several days not hours, but you can now sort your playlists in some odd ways too.
