SMD = Surface Mount Device.
The PCB is identical to solder to for wires or non-SMD devices. Really only BGA parts are tricky. An SMD resistor solders to two pads on the PCB. A regular resistor has wires through holes on the PCB and solders to two pads.
Only ordinary electronics soldering skill needed for simple SMD parts. ICs are harder and BGA needs a special rework station.
