For the lazy-but-not-so-lazy you can just install Proxmox, as weird as that sounds at first. Still Debian based, still supports root on ZFS with the GUI installer, and then you get a virtualization/container host with a friendly GUI on top for free. You can even make you NFS/SMB/Whatever shares as containers if you want to compartmentalize.

There's also free distros like OpenMediaVault for making a NAS with a nice web UI.
