You will want to install this module in a development environment, which typically means a local copy of DNN

1. Follow this tutorial for how to setup your development environment.
2. Once that environment is setup, go to the HOST/EXTENSIONS page
3. Install the SOURCE package of the module you purchased
4. Open up the Project file, or Solution, in Visual Studio 2015
5. Make your changes, compile the module/changes
6. Repackage the module for deployment, if the source code doesn't do it for you automatically you can follow this tutorial.
