In addition to those UI developing technologies you also need the environment for running (at least parts of) the appsuite locally. Therefore you can either copy the source from openxchange git repositories http://oxpedia.org/wiki/index.php?title=AppSuite:Apache_Configuration (and host it locally using apache) or run >>appserver<< (with local parts of the appsuite) automaticly getting the recent stable source packages from the appsuite servers. http://oxpedia.org/wiki/index.php?title=AppSuite:Appserver
