Installing Discourse on Devuan

Before deciding on setting up my Q&A site with Question2Answer I evaluated several programs, one of them being Discourse.

form-action: 'self';
frame-ancestors: 'self';

Since the available themes sort of looked like somebody threw random paintballs at them, I made my own. If you're interested you can download it from Github or here.
