Guitar capo is the easiest way to transpose on guitar, and play the open chords without holding Barre chords!

5 year experience on music and teach.. I have performed on many platforms before...

A capo temporarily shortens the strings on your guitar, raising the pitch of the unfretted, or 'open' strings and changing the key of open-position chords. Where you clamp the capo determines which open pitches the strings have and what your open-position chords are.
