Docker and LEMP development

Tl;dr: I am newbie to homelab, server- headless Debian, main pc- Arch. Do both Main PC and Server need same Docker + LEMP setup? Main pc for development, how get to server? SSH? Git? Other? Me dumb and over think, help appreciated. Thanks!

Hey everyone, I'm a newbie to homelabing and the answer may be really simple and I'm over thinking as usual. I'm finally pulling the trigger to setting up a server from some hardware I was able to snag over the years from my old job before sending them off to a recycling company. My server is going to be a headless install of Debian on a Lenovo ThinkCentre m80q with 16TB of HDD storage on a Thermaltake Blacx Duet (not the best but it's something for now) for Jellyfin.

Since I hear a lot of people saying that Docker is really helpful for multi purpose servers I was curious how development would work especially being new to using Docker and Ngnix. I want to do the main development on my main PC, which is on Arch btw, and then have the files hosted on the server. Will both my PC and server need the same Docker + LEMP setup so nothing breaks and is seamless between the two? Also since I would be doing most of the development on my main PC how would I get the files onto my server. Should I just make a repo and pull the code from there or could I somehow use SSH or is there another option that I could be overlooking. Sorry for some rambling and thanks for the advice in advanced!
