Keyboards & Macropads
Keyboards
Computing enthusiasts are usually very passionate about their choice of keyboards. Here are some keyboard-related communities in India where you will find detailed information and strong opinions:
subreddit for mechanical keyboards in India (here's their intro doc)
curated list of Open Source Mechanical Keyboard resources
A good idea might be to check if the keyboard you are considering runs the QMK open-source firmware or VIA firmware. Here is QMK's keyboard directory and here is VIA's.
There is this other keyboard firmware, ZMK, but they list only supported controller boards, not final products.
There are many, many choices (because mechanical or not, RGB or not, split/ergonomic or not etc) for repairable keyboards (like ZSA Moonlander split ergonomic keyboard), so a key factor might be to check if it is easy to acquire in India. Importing from outside India usually involves hassles around customs duties.
