I'm upgrading from 5.5 to 5.7. Should this be as easy as just overwriting the core with the new files? Do I need to do anything else?

Check the update.txt file in the core directory, and providing you follow the instructions, it should be as simple as assembling IKEA furniture (or easier!).

A piece of cake. All your modules should still work. Don't forget to
- keep your files
- keep your modifications (settings.php, .htaccess, theme)
- take the site off line during the operation
- run update.php at the end.

No harder than updating your modules to their latest 5.x releases.
