A separate numpad is essential if you use a compact keyboard (TKL, 75%, 65%, 60%) but still need number entry for spreadsheets or data work. Mechanical numpads with hot-swap sockets let you match the feel of your main keyboard. Wireless options reduce desk clutter. Place it on your left side to keep your mouse hand closer to the keyboard. QMK/VIA support enables custom key mapping for macros.
