I am wondering do/can I run Jenkins on a local machine for a single platform or do I submit a .yaml build script. If I can run it locally then can I run it on Debain rather than Ubuntu ?
You can run Jenkins on a local machine. The build jobs described with a yaml file using jenkins-job-builder isn't strictly required. Also, you can run it on Debian.
I guess it's worth adding that Jenkins is a separate open-source project, headquartered at http://jenkins-ci.org/ . From there, you can find documentation, mailing list(s), bug and patch tracker, etc. - we use all that ourselves when we have questions about Jenkins. jenkins-job-builder is also a separate project, part of the bigger OpenStack project, with its own documentation, etc.: http://docs.openstack.org/infra/jenkins-job-builder/
