> The main thing to know about Backbone is it’s not intended to be a fully fledged framework like React.

Neither is React. The built-in state management was meant for concerns relevant to only that component, not your entire app's state - people just realized it worked well enough.

Back when React was new, one of the ways to use it in more complex apps was with Backbone as the data store: https://www.npmjs.com/package/react.backbone

People weren't just using this as a migration path, before Rudux became the clear winner of that early React era people would reach for this combination (though possibly not with that specific library, I don't remember the details about using them together).
