Should I alter my game dev setup?

Hi
I recently acquired a MacBook w 10.15.1 Catalina, bec when I took my old 10.14.6 Mojave, the techs at GeekSquad said / comp friends said it was too old to service.
So, in making my phone game, I'd like to do the game dev on the new MacBook, so it can be repaired/ looked at, if necessary, and put my XAMPP on my old comp, bec it seems stable and I'm not using it for much else. This also means I can carry both MacBooks anywhere else, to do more dev, as I'm not always at home. - and I don't need another new comp.

Any comments?
Thanks

I don't see the problem, if you don't mind carrying around two laptops. I say go for it.

Will my web equivalent of XAMPP behave indistinguishably?

Presuming you can get to it from outside your computer, and I'm sure you've tested that already.

Yes, it works, only in so far as - does getting it to work on my comps generally indicate it will be totally fine online?

I've been advised to do dev on my intended final environment, which I would, if I knew what it will be. It appears that XAMPP is likely the right choice, even for a learning curve.
