Coding and compiling itself is not especially resource-intensive, so almost any computer that can run recent MacOS will do.


Don't buy any computer today with less than a 500-ish GB boot drive and 16GB RAM or more.


Debugging is another matter entirely. When debugging, you will generally want a LOT of windows open and available at the same time. if you need a MacBook Pro to have portability, consider a smaller screen for excellent portability with a larger external display on your desk at home to do debugging.
