Question:DataFrames -sorting by primary then secondary columns

In reference to the nice application: https://www.mapleprimes.com/posts/209845-Dataframes--Looking-For-A-New-Flashlight by @Christopher2222 ,  my question is: 

is there a simple way to sort primarily by one column, but if two elements possess identical values, then using a second column to determine the order? For example, what if we wanted to sort the flashlight dataframe primarily by "B-type" but use a subsort by "Minutes". 

I wrote a function which used recursion. It worked fine for small dataframes, but was painfully slow with a multi-thousand element spreadsheet.
