Sort the categories in an alphabetical order in the presence of plugin

”Category Order and Taxonomy Terms Order’ plugin’,  order Categories and all custom taxonomies terms (hierarchically) using a Drag and Drop Sortable javascript capability.

When the condition arrives, where we want  to order particular  categories / taxonomies  in the  alphabetical order, then we can use the ksort. Check the example :

function sortCategories($items) {
    $placeHolder = [];
    
    foreach ($items as $item) {
        $placeHolder[$item->name]= $item;
    }
    
    ksort($placeHolder);
    
    return $placeHolder;
}
   $args = array(
		'orderby'  => 'name', 
   		'order'    => 'ASC',
	        'child_of' => 0,
	         'parent'  => 0,
	         'hide_empty'  => 0,
	         );
	                
$categoriesT = get_categories( $args );
$categories = sortCategories($categoriesT);

echo '<ul>'
 foreach($categories as $category) {
            echo '<li>' . $category->name.'</li>';
        }
echo '</ul>'
