Backbone.js is a client-side MVC framework that provides structure and connects to RESTful APIs. It includes models to hold and sync data, views to render models and handle DOM events, and a router to handle application states and back/forward buttons. The framework is lightweight at 6.3kb gzipped and focuses models, views, and controllers to build single page applications that are organized and connect to RESTful services.
