PowerShellGet Description
PowerShellGet is a module that allows you to discover, install, update, and publish PowerShell artifacts such as modules, DSC resources and role capabilities. The Find-Command cmdlet searches PowerShell commands like cmdlets, aliases and functions. Find-Command searches registered repositories for modules. A PSGetCommandInfo object returns each command that Find-Command finds. The PSGetCommandInfo object is available for sending down the pipeline to Install-Module cmdlet. Install-Module installs a module that contains the command. You can locate DSC resources using the parameters Tag or RequiredVersion. Tag displays the current version for every resource that has the specified tag in it. RequiredVersion requires the ModuleName parameter, while the Name parameter can be optional. The output is limited by the Name and ModuleName parameters. To display all versions of a DSC resource, use the AllVersions parameter.

Zypper
Zypper is a command line package manager that allows you to install, update, and remove packages. It can also manage repositories. Zypper behaves and works as a regular command line tool. It supports subcommands, arguments and options that can be used for specific tasks. Zypper has many advantages over graphical package managers. Zypper is a command-line tool that is easy to use and saves you time. Zypper actions are scriptable. Zypper can also be used on systems without graphical desktop environments. This makes Zypper suitable for remote machines and servers. To execute Zypper, simply type its name followed by a command. You can also choose from one or several global options by simply typing them before the command. Some commands require multiple arguments. Executing subcommands within the Zypper shell and using global Zypper options is not supported.
