I haven't spent much time with debian recently, so take this with a grain
of salt... but....

See https://www.debian.org/mirror/

My understanding is that a debian "repository" is just a bunch of files
accessible via http or ftp. The real work would be handled by the client
package manager. The website I linked has a few scripts and I would be
suprised if they required debian.

Most distros just list packages in a folder and serve it up via a web
server. Point your ras pi's to the http://my.website.com/path/to/repo/root
during install, and if you properly mirrored the directory structure it
just kinda works. Theoretically, hopefully a debian user will correct me if
I'm wrong ;-)
Hope this points you in a useful direction.
