Recommended emulator frontend + scraping tool for multiregion collection?

So I have a collection of cartridges from US, Europe, and Japan. I've extracted ROMs from all of them I can so far and I'm trying to come up with a collection folder I can backup that can be dropped into an emulator frontend (e.g. Emulation Station) with correct information.

I've tried just using the built-in Emulation Station DE scraper, but it seems to completely ignore the fact that Screenscraper lets you look up by MD5 or CRC32 hash, and it's ONLY looking based on the file name of the ROM, and it doesn't seem to care that some game being a Japanese version of the game, I might want it to scrape the Japanese title and screenshots. (It doesn't even make regional assumptions where there are 'snesna', 'snes', and 'sfc' folders it generated itself.)

So it's kind of a mess.

I've tried using Skraper and some other frontends, but Skraper and the frontends don't seem to support having Super Famicom separate from Super NES at all.

I'm hoping for a solution I can mostly just copy over to like... my Steam Deck or a RetroPie and have it work.

Does anyone here have a setup they've landed on that they're happy with?
