“Best” is subjective. What might be a good way for me might not be
your preferred way.
LuaMetaTex doesn't care at all *how* you input the characters into
your text editor. The characters end up in the tex file and that's
what's processed by context.
\starttext

\stoptext
Methods:
- custom keyboard layout (my preferred way)
- compose key
- symbol input tables (provided by your OS)
- copy-pasting symbols from somewhere else

You need to select a font containing the characters you need. Or set
up a fallback for a certain range:
