So basically if there is a っ before こ, it will make it kko or kka for か, so on and so forth.

This is very nearly correct. See my post and duo797's earlier, discussing what it really does. A decent approximation for beginners is that it means "double the next consonant." That's not entirely correct, and once you've started reading intermediate-level dialog, you'll see things like
あっオマエだ！ Which is "A-- omae da!" not "Aoomae da" or something.
