They left the sourcemaps in their build, so one can see the code from the Usage section of sql.js-httpvfs (https://github.com/phiresky/sql.js-httpvfs#usage) copy-pasted into App.tsx, but I didn't find any other identifying text
I'd actually guess it was just a copy-paste of the "sqlite over webworker using wasm" demo, backed by the actual sqlite of the actions https://www.awsiam.info/iam.db
Given this audience, I bet some commentary on how you built the sqlite database, and (related to that) how one can tell how stale the information in it is would be interesting
My go to for this kind of all-in-one IAM reference is https://github.com/widdix/complete-aws-iam-reference -> https://iam.cloudonaut.io/ although I guess they stopped paying attention to the issues and PRs in light of their new "use the AWS docs" banner

Toward that end, I have *long* wanted to be able to rebuild the AWS docs locally, to fix some rendering pet peeves of mine, and it became a raging fire recently when they stopped making the PDF of cfn-ug (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cloudformation/), so if someone has some local tooling for that, I (and others: https://github.com/awsdocs/amazon-ec2-user-guide/issues/101) would value knowing about it

Yeah I want to add some last updated timestamp to the bottom of the site, I'll probably do that in the next day or so.
The data is updated on a weekly cron. I run a small python script that utilizes Parliament's code for downloading the docs pages and parsing them into json. From there, what I did was create a SQL schema with SQLAlchemy and load the json data from the Parliament script.
I open sourced the code for anyone curious, it's nothing fancy. https://github.com/zscholl/aws-iam-db
I'd seen the cloudonaut site but I kept going back to the AWS docs to answer questions like: "what are all the s3 write actions?" or "what am I actually allowing with S3:get*?"
I created this to help solve that problem without googling "aws iam s3 actions" and scrolling down through AWS' pages.
