From a freshly created Debian 12 from Proxmox templates using 2 gig of ram (That is just what I used)

# Add deb-src to all the sources in /etc/apt/sources.list
grep "^deb " /etc/apt/sources.list | sed s/deb/deb-src/ >> /etc/apt/sources.list

# Update everything
apt update && apt upgrade

# Install GUI and other needed stuff
apt install xfce4 xfce4-goodies xorg dbus-x11 x11-xserver-utils lsb-release sudo

# create new user and add them to group sudo
adduser setup

adduser setup sudo

# enter user created
su - setup

# Download xrdp script and install it with sound.
wget https://c-nergy.be/downloads/xRDP/xrdp-installer-1.4.7.zip
unzip xrdp-installer-1.4.7.zip
chmod +x xrdp-installer-1.4.7.sh
./xrdp-installer-1.4.7.sh -s 

Now connect to it with Remote Desktop!

The GUI doesn't include a web browser, so you will have to install one... I prefer Brave, https://brave.com/linux/ on installing that.
