At best you need to setup your project as Composer project, so all the dependencies are resolved by it. There is a nice skeleton extension [1], created by Helmut Hummel, from which you can get your inspiration.

If you don't want to make so radical changes, you may try then to run "composer install -o" from within your typo3_src directory, then all dependencies of TYPO3 should be resolved and 'vendor' directory will appear.
