I didn't realize it was possible to host your own backend locally... I thought it was just hosting the webUI locally.

Yep, you can host it all yourself. Both UI and the server. Not sure how backwards compatible the "public" client is - I remember Rocket.chat Android client breaking by not updating the server on at least 2 occasions over the past 2 years.
