I have some cool projects that I use such as zellij and yazi that I use but aren't in the debian repos, I would like to attempt to package them myself, is there any guides on how to do such? were could I get some help learning how to package things?

I would love to see yazi in Debian!

Me too. Though pipx works, it really should be in a proper package.
