Yast2 installation on tumbleweed server

How do you install Yast on a tumbleweed server?
I used zypper install yast2 and it did install it, and it runs fine but it has no categories. It only has Miscellaneous and that is it.

You need to install the YaST2 modules that you want, as example yast2-journal.
