JSON Workbench

Privacy-first JSON & JWT tools that run in your browser

JSON Workbench launched on September 2, 2026 with 1 votes, #3,901 of 8,095 launches that month.

What it does

JSON Workbench started because I kept hitting the same wall: pasting real data (tokens, configs, payloads) into random online tools felt risky, and I never knew where that data actually went. So I built a set of dev tools, JSON formatter, JWT debugger, CSV to JSON converter, Excel compare, and more, that run fully in your browser. Nothing gets uploaded, nothing touches a server. If you handle sensitive JSON or JWTs at work and can't paste them into cloud tools or LLMs, this is built for you.

A professional-grade suite for formatting, validating, anonymizing, and comparing JSON and data files. Secure, browser-based, and local-first.

    I've been at it again, just sharing my simple JSON data inspection tool, love webdev and single page apps, this one took 4 days and was a lot of fun. The code is not obfuscated so you can inspect it and see how it works (very simple, server side is even more simple) Pretty much just do a POST of your JSON data from within your code and it will convert it into a basic table for instant search and sort. Made with love for the fun of it, no ads, no paid anything, it's totally free. Please only send in sanitized/test data only, this is meant to help make webdev a bit easier and more fun.…

    I kept opening online JSON formatters and getting buried in ads and popups. So I made a clean version with a few tools I actually use daily – JSON formatter with syntax highlighting, Base64 encoder/decoder, JWT decoder, text diff, and timestamp converter. Everything runs client-side. No tracking, no server calls, no signup walls. Built with React 19 and TypeScript. It's open source: https://github.com/chken007/tooly My 5-year-old helped name it. She insisted on "Tooly" and I couldn't argue with that logic. Open to feedback – especially if you spot bugs or have…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
