What is Underscore.js?

Underscore is a utility-belt library for JavaScript that provides a lot of the functional programming support that you would expect in Prototype.js (or Ruby), but without extending any of the built-in JavaScript objects. It's the tie to go along with jQuery's tux, and Backbone.js's suspenders.

superluminar doesn't think Handlebars is an alternative to Underscore.js
Handlebars just covers a tiny part of underscore (the templating) but does it far more extensively.

superluminar Upvoted a comment on jQuery as an alternative to Underscore.js
jQuery focusses on DOM manipulation and Ajax, while underscore gives functional tools for working with arrays and objects.
