If it's just JS + CSS changes you an update the files in a running openmeetings server using those scripts: https://openmeetings.apache.org/BuildInstructions.html#update-javascript-and-css-at-runtime
This will take ~10seconds + refresh the browser. Compared to 2-3 minutes to do a rebuild and then restart the server. However it won't work if you happen to need to update any of the HTML files.
