How to create cloud-computing server at home?

Like the title says, I would like to make a centralized computing server at home, where people could be on some basic 2-in-1 laptop, do their daily whatevers, but if they go to do something that can benefit from a much better system, it then utilizes the servers hardware to finish the task faster.

I'm not entirely sure if a system like this is entirely possible, but something makes me feel like it could be done. It could essentially be an RDP session, but without the hassle of initiating it. Like opening remote desktop and connecting to the server, or opening VSphere and logging into a VM. Basically run VMware on the server and make a VM for everyone on the network that runs hand-in-hand with whoever it's assigned to, only over the network.

Hell even if there's a way to make you log directly into a remote desktop session when you turn on your PC then that could work. Just think of the users as computer illiterate and would never be able to remember to connect to the remote session before starting whatever they wanted to do.

Another question I have is how to sync user's files and programs between computers on the LAN. My college does this well, where you can save your documents and installed programs on computer A, then wheel over to computer B and it would have everything you just did on the previous machine.

The first time you log into a machine that you haven't logged into before, it goes through a setup process which can take a few minutes, but after that it has all the things associated with your domain profile on computer B.

Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance!
