Can someone give a brief overview of Lakka? Will admit that I'm on mobile and am being a bit lazy. Top 2 Google results were fluff pieces. Is it just a launcher? A drop in replacement for retroarch? Emulates a only a specific set of consoles that aren't being cared for by the retro arch community?

It's basically a distro made specifically to run RetroArch, based on OpenELEC. You can just flash it on let's say a Raspberry Pi or a portable gaming console (if a Lakka image exists for it) and you're good to go.
