Is a local host faster to develop WordPress on?

I have built a number of WP sites, however because these are in web browser, when i click something it takes time for the browser to bring the new information up.

My question, is the response faster developing from a local host on computer than it is to develop traditionally through live web browser?

I know how to set up all this up, so not asking how to do it. Just wondering about people who have experience with this which is better.

I feel like I’m loosing hours per day waiting for pages to load or refresh in live web browser.

Thanks for any feed back.
