Well, as far as I can understand, frames may be the ConTeXt name for TeX
boxes.

They are explained in chapter 5 from “TeX by Topic”
(https://texdoc.org/serve/TeXbyTopic.pdf/0#nameddest=chapter.5), pages
51ff from “TeX for the Impatient”
(https://tug.ctan.org/info/impatient/book.pdf#page=71) and chapter 11
from “The TeXbook” (source available at https://ctan.org/pkg/texbook
[the file shouldn’t be compiled, it is only offered as a sample for
study]; chapter begins with `\beginchapter Chapter 11. Boxes`).

That being said, text is directly modifiable as such, but frames are
like containers: you may modify frames directly, but their contents are
modifiable only inside the frames themselves.

In a certain way, frames are direct page elements, such as texts, but
frame contents are only indirect page elements (only through their
containers).

Sorry, this is probably a poor (and I hope not totally wrong)
explanation. But this is the best I can do now.

If you have uses or needs in mind, please elaborate them and that way it
might be easier to explain.

I hope it might help,

Pablo
