iCloud documents transfer to MacBook?

I am about to purchase a new Mac and I am wanting all of my documents to transfer over onto my new computer. From what I understand, my documents are all stored in the iCloud.


When I get my new MacBook and login to my iCloud account, will the documents I created from my previous MacBook be there to store on my new MacBook?

MacBook Pro 13", macOS 10.14
