There are some potentially more modern future options:

Plug in the device to a USB port, visit the installer web page, click
the button to install the OS, done. This can be done using WebUSB:

https://grapheneos.org/install/web

Go to the app store of your existing OS, select the Debian app, run it
to try Debian out, click the option to reboot into it natively, choose
to boot into the existing app or via a new disk partition. This can be
done using preinstalled images, VMs and modifying UEFI settings to
offer Debian at boot time, using an image on an existing partition,
or by copying that image to a partition.

Both of these have a better user experience than having to find
external temporary storage for the installer, when there is
already existing internal storage that could be used for this.
