I think you're looking for http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/WebFramework but unfortunately it isn't complete or exhaustive.

I know this is not becomes obvious immediately, and I ran into the same problem. So I'm documenting it here, hoping that it will help someone.

splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager,
splunkjs/mvc/tableview,

etc

all these libraries come as a part of the following config.js file, located at
splunkjsstack/static/splunkjs/config.js. Don't change the path in the following deps array, in the example. Just the path to the config needs to be changed, according to your folder structure.

deps = [
        "splunkjs/ready!",
        "splunkjs/mvc/searchmanager",
        "splunkjs/mvc/chartview",
        "splunkjs/mvc/eventsviewerview"
    ];

You can find the documentation about these files in config.js itself. Just search for the filename and that will lead you to the implementation. Which has inline documentation.

cheers!
