Swapping Shimano Zee to Deore SLX

[Oscdav]

I have a 2010 Commencal FS with a Zee 9 gear derailer, shifter and worn crank. It goes well with a Bafang HD conversion and Blingring chainwheel.
Thinking of swapping it out for a virtually unused 2016 SLX 10 cog crank, with supplied original derailer, shifter and crank. A first time attempt at this for me in this area.
This should will give me an easier time tackling steeper trails here in Norway.
Are there any obvious pitfalls that are likely to arise. Any advice greatly appreciated!
Cheers!
