Is there an issue with developing my site on my macbook and then moving to a server when done? Will there be issues I need to plan ahead for? DB or ruby related maybe? Dependencies or something a server could have different from my dev environment that could cause a nightmare later? I’d rather develop it offline since it’d be faster and wouldn’t require an internet connection but in the past I’ve always done everything with live sites so this would be a first, and I am new to ruby on rails.

Developing locally and then deploying to your server(s) via something like capistrano is standard practise.
It’s a good idea to keep your development environment as close as possible to your production environment (ruby versions, database versions etc). Bundler makes keeping your gems in sync easy
