Is there any GUI keyboard layout customizer?

I know I can have my own keyboard layout with XKB, but the process is cumbersome.

Is there any GUI SW to customize the keyboard layout (for example for swapping keys)?

Preferably for Ubuntu 20.04.

    Input-remaper was the answer.

    Install some APT dependencies

    sudo apt install git python3-setuptools gettext

    Clone the repo

    git clone https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper.git

    As a safety precaution scan it with clamscan before sudoing it

    sudo apt install clamav -y
clamscan input-remapper/ --recursive

    Install it

    cd input-remapper && ./scripts/build.sh
sudo apt install ./dist/input-remapper-1.4.1.deb
