Is there a frontend like RetroArch, but that allows me to use my own emulators?
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.

Anyone else think it would be cool to have a type of kodi all-in-one launcher that can install and play games from anywhere?
Have a look at pegasus-fe. Works on most OS (windows, macOS, linux, android etc.). It won't download games, but presents them in a very nice and efficient way. It also has many themes. Lastly, you can also launch programs, not only games !
- Is there anything like RetroPie available for Ubuntu?
-
Alternative Launchers for SteamOS / Game Mode?
Pegasus - seems like a proper launcher that can incorporate games from multiple stores? It seems promising.

Is using unity to create an emulation front end a good idea?
I'm looking to create an emulation front-end (like Launchbox, Playnite, and Pegasus) using neo4j to store relationships between items (games, platforms, developers ect.). I've built myself a starting point in Java using JavaFX, but after trying to display items I'm starting to experience the limitations of that. I'm wondering if it might be a good idea for me to switch over to Unity at this point in development, before the application gets too big.
- Looking for a frontend/launcher with pretty specific needs

Using RA menu to launch exe games or other non-core games.
