How to charge macbook if I have to unplug frequently?

I have to unplug my macbook about 3-5 times a day. Should I leave it plugged for the rest of the day? or will doing so damage my battery? If so, how should I charge my macbook?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.5

You can plug it in when needed or whenever convenient to do so. Leaving the computer plugged in will not damage the computer or the battery. The MacOS manages the power/charging system very well. There is no need for you to micromanage the system.
