Installing on RISC-V board using debootstrap

I own a Milk-V Jupiter. It's basically the same as a Banana PI F3, but with much worse software support. Due to the nature of RISC-V devboards, the Banana PI one is supported by Ubuntu and Fedora, but the Milk-V is only supported by the Chinese Vendor OS Bianbu Linux, which is fine for messing around but I don't fully trust it.

I want to use the distribution I like, Devuan. Can I use debootstrap to create a root filesystem and run my system as usual? is there a repository set up for that?

Compiling from scratch won't be a problem, if needed, I just need some good documentation:)
Thank you in advance for any help.
