If you want to be able to edit excel and word document in the browser, you will have to go with google docs (that just launch their service) or with Office Online Server or Office 365.

To be able to manage your files you need to implement a WOPI server to be able to send and receive those files either to Office Online or google docs. (This is how all major cloud storage companies does it).

This is an medium/hard implementation and takes some knowledge reading and time.
