Why the need for Node.js? Couldn't this simply be a static site? (I know there are tons of these, but most are "blog oriented)

You could just create a static HTML site yes, but getting it generated for you from Markdown files is super handy. To generate it on the fly it needs to be powered by some kind of server (e.g. Node, PHP, Python etc). Nodejs was just a good choice of platform for this kind of thing.
