I heard some comments from #Linux #tech YouTubers lately that building #Debian packages was hard, so here's my take.

1) Create a directory laid out how you want the installed files to look. This structure will get mirrored to the system upon install.
2) In the staging folder create a DEBIAN folder with, at minimum, a "control" file in it with fields like app version and such.

Done. Screenshots with captions attached.
