Simple, flexible and fast

It's easy to get up and running and to be productive with it. You can actually read it's entire codebase in less than one day. It's very flexible and unopinionated but of course that means you end up writing more code than frameworks like Angular, Ember, etc. It's a very mature, battle tested, project with plenty of support over the internet.

Backbone user and abuser

Backbone allows for quite a bit of flexibility but still gives you enough structure so that you won't hang yourself. It isn't too opinionated so you can still implement things how you want but it allows you to get some convenience methods and helpers to quickly bootstrap a project.

Simple and unopinionated framework

Backbone.js doesn't force you to do things "their way," like many other popular frameworks do. It allows the developer to abstract out extensible models and views from data, while retaining the flexibility of a small framework. The source code is easily accessible and commented in a human-friendly manner.
