isort your imports, so you don't have to.
isort is a Python utility / library to sort imports alphabetically and
automatically separate into sections and by type. It provides a command
line
utility, Python library and [plugins for various
editors] to
quickly sort all your imports. It requires Python 3.9+ to run but
supports formatting Python 2 code too.
