Looking for CI/CD practice for home
I've previously used Hashicorp Packer configs in a private git repo (based on the 'chef bento' configs used for many standard Vagrant boxes) that can build template server images for and then deploy a complete fully unattended CI pipeline from scratch, using nothing more than Apache Subversion (built into CentOS and RHEL but also has an excellent Windows version!) and Jenkins. Takes under 15 mins to provision both and can be tested locally (and completely offline!) in Virtualbox as it uses a limited amount of resources. I developed the solution for a rather risk averse client that required a cheap and easy reusable centrally managed CI pipeline that could handle larger sources than git by default and be built from artefacts on a private 'air-gapped and sheep-dipped' LAN with verified SHA256 hashes for all vendor binaries.

Arch Linux turns 20: Small, simple, great documentation
You can install Debian the same way you installed Arch (manual, CLI) via debootstrap. I built a tool that does this, you can look through it and see how I do it--it's just bash. Download a Debian live ISO (or use my tool to create an Arch-like minimal live USB) and you can install it however you want.

Can I **completely** automate the provisioning of Debian servers/laptops?
I built a tool to do this that you may find useful: https://github.com/candiddev/forge.git. It is an opinionated bash script to setup an absolutely bare minimum debian instance.
