Do this one. Not only will it make your development easier, but it's the only
way to be sure you're not breaking your running, visible-to-the-world
application constantly.
The ideal would be to install roughly the same sort of Linux system as is on
your remote server, but you can probaby get close enough without that. For
example, if your preferred OS is Windows, install and configure MySQL, Apache
and PHP on Windows and do your development there, using whatever editor
you're comfortable with. As long as you're careful not to write anything
that's blatantly Windows-centric, you should be able to push your changes to
the Linux box without trouble.
You might want to get a Linux box, or at least run Linux in a VM, for a quick
validation test prior to pushing the code to your "production" system.
