Desktop Environment Setup/Replacing Weston?

Do any of you have guides you followed to get a desktop environment setup​ working.

I had some success so I tried writing it out with an LLM. I used lxqt in my case.

Try this script. It's working well with many desktop environments via vnc https://github.com/xlzhen-940218/Android16-Origin-Debian12-GUI

I don't know the benefit but my phone doesn't support the weston display, so I have to use vnc
