Retroarch, method/core to launch an application
It's something we've talked about for a long time, and it's not technically impossible (or even very difficult, really). We've long had cores that can launch external processes for PCSX2 or dolphin, or this general one that launches bash scripts in linux.

Is there a frontend like RetroArch, but that allows me to use my own emulators?
There are better options that have been commented already, but I did make a Dolphin Launcher core. Someone forked it and made a PCSX2 fork of it.... https://github.com/RobLoach/libretro-dolphin-launcher

Getting started with core development
you might also check out the 'dolphin launcher' core, which just calls an external program: https://github.com/RobLoach/libretro-dolphin-launcher.

Sure, but it will be much better with Ice.

Planning to use the Steam Deck for emulation? Then you need to know about Steam ROM Manager
I used to use Ice for this very purpose on my old HTPC -- https://github.com/scottrice/Ice, but it appears to be a dead project. Glad to see this!

I made a proof of concept for running Epic Store Games from Steam Deck UI
https://github.com/scottrice/Ice Interesting project adds roms into Steam and downloads metadata. I believe it's able to parse and edit the shortcuts.vdf file to add the games into steam itself.
What are some alternatives?
