Data is available on the HN API.
There are a number of OSS projects which use that.
The code for the site is here: https://github.com/hooopo/hackernews-insight
Sadly no in depth write up.
The home page of the Hacker News Insight site (https://hackernews-insight.vercel.app) gives a bit of background about the stack: it's a TiDB Cloud database (https://www.pingcap.com/tidb-cloud/) and Evidence front-end (https://evidence.dev)
A couple of questions:
1. How did you gather the data?
2. What's the architecture / tech stack? Data store, data pipelines / back-end, front-end? The presentation layer looks really neat.
