How can I have my Windows keymap on Mac?

On Mac, to get a "{" for example, you have to press OPTION key plus 8 to get a curly brace. But on Windows it is ALT-GR plus 7.

"You can use Ukelele to create your own keyboard layout. However, I think there is no way to differentiate between left and right (ALT-GR) alt keys. This should make brackets and curly braces more accessible.

Regarding Ctrl-BS and Alt-BS, I don't think there's a way to change that."
