What is an appropriate way to install debian packages in a completely air-gapped environment?
I've had good success using Aptly which is basically the same thing, but geared exclusively for deb repos.

About nautilus-typeahead
You should ask in the upstream bug tracker (is it this one? https://github.com/lubomir-brindza/nautilus-typeahead). First step is to get it to build for Debian manually/locally - i.e. patch the official nautilus Debian package. Then it's easy to setup a personal APT repository with aptly

WSUS Alternative solution for Linux Systems
Exactly what aptly is for. No idea about CentOS side, for that we just had rsync from official repo + some scripts

Linux Package repo server
The last time I got involved in repo/package management, we used aptly Later moved to Jfrog artifactory. The latter is very expensive.There is also pulp some said it is good, which I personally never managed in production environment, so I can't recommend for or against.

Microsoft Ubuntu repositories are broken because of space issues
Aptly [0] is also really nice for maintaining mirrors and one's own Apt repositories though it is unmaintained.

Refrapt - A Python Alternative to apt-mirror
I tried aptly as an alternative, but it's just not designed for my use case. Dealing with creating 1 mirror per component is a nightmare, and then creating a snapshot, and then publishing it, and then repeating this on a short cycle to keep up to date. I'm also aware of debmirror, which I haven't actually tried, but where's the fun in using someone else's program when you can write your own eh?

Nix is the ultimate DevOps toolkit
I am very much looking forward to trying Nix I just haven’t made the time.
That being said the article jogged my memory on some related thoughts...
If you’re building deb packages for your own apt repo aptly is a great tool for powering it https://www.aptly.info/
If you haven’t tried asdf for managing versions of tools it generally does what you’d expect and does it well https://asdf-vm.com/#/ It uses pyenv under the hood for Python management AFAIK.

The 2024 Web Hosting Report
To manage a VM, you can use something as simple as just manual actions over SSH, or can use tools like Ansible, Hashicorp's Packer and Terraform or other automations. For an app where there is minimal load and security/reliability concern, VMs are still a great option that provide a lot of value for the buck

auto-provisioning multiple raspberry pi's
Packer is a tool that can be used to build machine images. Basically, it takes a base image, runs a series of steps to provision that image, and then burns a new image. In my workplace we use it heavily to build AWS AMIs. But it has an ARM plugin that looks to be very very suitable for building customised Raspberry Pi images (my quick read of the doco there says it can go ahead and write the final image to an SD card for you too).

Virtualbox 7.0.4 kickstart issue
However, I was unable to build the boxes with packer for some reason. It turned out that this wasn't an easy to fix or obvious issue. In fact, I had to search quite hard to find an answer. I am pretty sure my friend Tim Hall (oracle-base) ran into this issue too. Finally, I found a description of the issue on packer GitHub: Packer 1.8.4 not working with Virtualbox 7.0.4+ #12118.
I was building a new version of YugabyteDB vagrant box with packer and virtual box. Because we (Yugabyte) have a new preview release out.
