Like said, I normally buy a domain and setup an idea and work on it. In the process I learn a lot.

  Why would you buy a domain per idea for learning to develop? Sure for production this is a given but for fiddling about with things unless you have a good reason to work remotely why would you?

    Because domain names are cheap, and feeling like you are actually producing something that the world can see is a great source of motivation. You also run into problems when you deploy to a real domain that you never encounter if you're just noodling around with code on your local computer. The risk of creating a bunch of toy programs on your local disk that you never show to anyone is that you avoid the hard parts. Accountability is a good thing, in programming and in homework.

    Because a domain would provide a real world example on a live server rather than a 127.0.0.1. Also one would learn to tweak a server to the application.
