A minimal JSON paste app inspired by JSONBlob, built for the moments when sharing structured data should feel quick, clean, and almost invisible.
Fable is a very simple idea, which is why I like it.
Sometimes you do not want a platform. You just want to paste JSON, save it, and send someone a link. JSONBlob already captured that need well. I saw it and immediately wanted to build my own version with a cleaner, more minimal feel.
Why I built it
The problem here was not "there are no tools." The problem was that most tools around structured data sharing either feel heavier than necessary or are designed more for code hosting than quick exchange.
What I focused on
- Fast create-or-edit flow.
- Shareable URLs with minimal ceremony.
- A cleaner interface around a very small job.
- A modern stack with TanStack Router, Convex, and a focused editor experience.
What it says about how I build
Fable reflects a part of my personality that matters a lot in product work: I pay attention to the weight of an experience. Even when the feature set is small, the friction still matters.
