Chewie is a Node.js module that you can use in a skeleton build with any static site generator. It supports a different approach to documentation, unlike the single source publishing documentation trend. With Chewie, you can distribute your content in different locations, essentially making it distributed source publishing.

What does this mean in practice? Imagine your product consists of forty different documentation topics. Using Chewie, you can document them all in one portal using a static site generator, but keep the content in forty different repositories, each managed by different teams using git.
