Open source Rick's awesome visualizer

[evbo]

I'm both amazed by the power of visualizing dynamodb indexing and bewildered that such a concept wasn't materialized until 2025!

This tool is awesome. Could Rick please open source it as part of this repo?:

https://rh-web-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html

That way it is preserved and hopefully iterated on by the community! I do not have a Twitter/X account, else I would have asked him directly on that platform.

Thank you for this

Hi! I too like this tool. It's from ~2016 and written while Rick was employed at AWS.

I believe I can get the source code for this. Assigning to myself. If you hear from Rick in the meantime, let us know on this issue.

@switch180 thanks! I'm not sure about license but for what it's worth if you use Chrome to download the complete HTML all of the JS is unminified/unuglified =)

Open sourced. Although I should probably move it over to the amazon-dynamodb-tools repo at some point. For now, it's here: https://github.com/aws-samples/amazon-dynamodb-labs/tree/master/static/files/visualizer
and
