How to install lights in a ceiling

I hope this does not sound like a "silly" question. I saw a zero drop ceiling were the channels get screwed to the joists. How do recessed lights get installed with this system. Do I use regular new construction brackets? Kind of thinking...how do you get the light lined up with everything so it rests in the middle of the panel? You would have to get the panel centered on the joist space for the recessed light to fit into so the can can fit up into the ceiling. For a drop ceiling, I assume the light somehow installs onto the panel, so you can get them centered.
