Is there a 'batteries included' backend framework like Django, but written in JS?

    Also, there is a project called Sails.js if you're explicitly looking for a complete MVC framework in JS. I will say that I have not seen it used by any of the teams I've been on/around that work in JS, so it is a much less popular choice than building something starting with the simpler building blocks mentioned above.
