Tasmota with OpenHab or similar (sh.itjust.works)

Greetings, internet strangers. I just got a Martin Jerry Tasmota smart switch and would like to connect it to OpenHab or something similar. I have ruled out HomeAssistant because their docker image doesn’t have plugin support and I need to run it on an existing Debian 12 server. I know a little bit about mqtt but not much. If anyone could tell me how or recommend a guide to configuring a Tasmota switch with OpenHab or similar with a mqtt broker that would be great. Thanks.

Edit: typo

Run a supervised install of HomeAssistant, which does support plugins?

I looked at that but their site warned that it would be pretty hands-on.

Edit: I realized that I should clarify after typing this, my problem is with hands-on maintenance not setup.

Replying for documentation purposes. I found this video, which when combined with Tasmota documentation was enough to figure this out. Hope this helps anyone else trying this in the future.
