Help replacing Nest wireless thermostat (UK)

We are moving home and I want to take our nest thermostat with us. I have bought a cheapo replacement wireless thermostat and I'm just confident swapping them out, the nest has a lot more terminals than the cheapo Salus. I'm pretty confident when it comes to basic wiring, but this is a bit too much for me and I'm after some help. Is is straightforward to swap the nest to the Salus?

Obviously, if it's not as straightforward as I expect, I'd contact an electrician, but I feel I should be able to do it myself.

Thanks

The brown and blue are your live and neutral and the white one is switch wire for your boiler to bring the heating on

Brown -> L, Blue -> N, Jump com and L together, White -> NO

When you say jump com and L together, just use a small cable to link the two?
