My first cabinet was "frame free" and was VERY sturdy! The one I am building now does not have a frame either, but I am using some home-made 1x2 (took a couple of 2x4s and ripped them in half) and I am using them to make quick and easy joints to screw in to) to make it easier to assemble by myself. I was able to screw a piece of the cabinet to one of my cut pieces of 1x2, and then I used some clamps and held the next piece to it and screwed that in as well.
Hard to describe. I am sure that my joints will be stronger, but I was never worried about them in the past either.
So anyway, if you aren't sure, then put some wood pieces on the inside of all of the corners and you will have a nice area to screw in to, but beyond that, you will be fine.
