Description

I have yet to determine whether it'll actually work (the bulb I bought turned out to be a dud, no flashing on switching it on, I'll swap it tomorrow), but I see no reason why Tuya Convert would only run on Debian (-based) distros. Personally, I'll be giving it a go on Fedora, and for completeness sake I could check OpenSUSE as well, as those are the distro's I run.

Would there be community effort in documenting it, and/or an attempt at making the scripts less directly dependant on Debian?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Identify Debian specific package names and commands in the scripts, then find equivalents for Fedora (dnf) and OpenSUSE (zypper). Document the differences and propose a distribution agnostic approach.
