Your development environment is now set up; therefore, it is time to download Backbase Client Framework from http://www.backbase.com/download.
Once you have downloaded the package, which comes as a ZIP file, you can unzip it to a convenient location. The unzipped package should look similar to this:
Note
Warning: What we describe here is the structure of the Backbase package as you can find it on the Web at the time of writing. Changes have occurred in the past and may happen again.
In order to use the Backbase framework, your web server must send it to a browser. Therefore, we must copy the framework to a location where the web server can find it. Your web server serves its pages from its document root. Its default location for the document root can be very different depending on the web server you are using and by configuring the web server, you can have multiple roots at almost any location in the file system on the host of your web server.
Let's assume that your development web server is Apache from the XAMPP package and that you have installed it on the C: drive. The default document root is then: c:\xampp\htdocs. The easy way to install the Backbase framework is to copy the backbase folder found in the web folder and paste it as a subfolder of htdocs. For the time being, you can delete the 4_4_1_optimized folder that you just copied. You will need the optimized version of the framework only when you are actually deploying your application on a publicly visible server.
