Doing some research on using zypper for package management and came across this well written informative piece. Thought I would share it here.

related to repos and packages, it has sensible online help right at your
fingertips.

My Linux skills have been limited to a basic install, and getting around in the system. I've recently decided to take the O.S. more seriously and become a full time user and more of a Linux hobbyist.
