Show HN: AWS Doc Extractor – Extract, Parse, and Organize AWS Docs

github.com
This project exists because I observed that any section of the AWS docs that start with a *Note* was something that was worth paying attention to. These sections documented gotchas, limits, and other caveats of a particular service. When not observed, they can take anywhere on the order of hours to weeks to work around.
Ironically, AWS has made an announcement yesterday to retire the github docs (https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/retiring-the-aws-documentat...) which means I'll need to invest in adding a page scraping component to this project after June to keep docs up to date
OT1H, that makes me super sad; OTOH, I never could build the docs from those sources so ... I wondered who the consumer was for them, anyway

too bad they don't publish epub like Oracle, since if nothing else it'd be a boatload less HTTP to pull down all the content, and then the pages themselves would be xhtml
