Do you mean you want to use 'bind-key' package from
<https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package/>?

If so, you can use something like this:

(bind-keys
 :prefix-map my-map
 :prefix-docstring "My favourite map"
 :prefix "C-c ,"
 ("-" . text-scale-decrease)
 ("+" . text-scale-increase))

You are not forced to use a single spot.  You can add keys to your map
later:

(bind-keys
 :map my-map
 ("f" . forward-char)
 ("b" . backward-char))

or:

(bind-key "RET" 'hanoi my-map)
