OpenPanel supports Debian

OpenPanel 0.2.0 supports Debian 🚀

Ever since our launch in late February, I've received questions like: "Why Ubuntu and not Debian?" The truth is, I'm more accustomed to Ubuntu, and haven't worked extensively with Debian to feel as comfortable managing and maintaining it as I do with Ubuntu.

However, with the overwhelming demand from our users on GitHub, forums, and Discord to add Debian support, I've accepted the challenge and began working on the integration.

After a few months of development and some adjustments to our existing logic, I'm thrilled to announce that OpenPanel 0.2.0 now fully supports Debian! 🎉

We will support all current LTS versions of Debian, at this moment those are Debian11 and Debian12:

While there are still a few minor issues remaining—ones that 99.9% of users will likely never encounter—I'm committed to resolving them as swiftly as possible.

Please give it a try and don't hesitate to reach out if you encounter any bugs. Your feedback is invaluable in improving OpenPanel!


Note: As OpenPanel 0.2.0 is the first version to support Debian, attempting to install older versions of OpenPanel on Debian, such as --version=0.1.8, will fail.
