Presumably it's just using a proxy? As far as I know there's still no way to have the browser interact with the blockchain directly unless you use a non-standard extension like MetaMask.

JS can interact with an RPC endpoint directly, but the individual would have to provide one (either as you're suggesting via a proxy) or directly in code. This project is actually by a friend of mine, i should ask him...ive never bothered despite also working in the web3 space myself. All our work is done server side, so we just use our own RPC endpoints and nothing is shared with the public.
