Seeking information to build software to support windows software apps to run on upcoming Snapdragon X Elite arm processor?
The open-source and performant ones are https://fex-emu.com/ and https://box86.org/, but they are not written in Rust. Their documentation is probably the best bet if you want to build something along these lines.

Have you ever tried to run STEAMCMD on a Beaglebone Black ?
On the official repo if you scroll down there is steam compatibility and it says that in the root of the repo there is the steam install script. https://github.com/ptitSeb/box86
- Wine on chromebook

Steam not available ?
That means it'll need a 32-bit emulator to run on, but as it says on box86.org, box86 only runs on 32-bit ARM chips. Hence it runs on a Pi2 but not a Pi3 or higher.

Factorio on Arm: A Benchmark
Recently, I got a server from Oracle Cloud, having 4 cores and 24GB of RAM. Then, using a software called Box86 and its 64 bit version called Box64, I succeeded in running Factorio! Unfortunately, 1.1.80 ran at 3 UPS! I went through each major version, testing each individual one down to 0.12. Here are my results!

Does my white thinkpad count~?
Unfortunately box86 requires a little-endian processor, and the G4 is a big-endian processor so it won’t work

Could try this https://github.com/FEX-Emu/FEX + wine/proton. But as always keep in mind that playing on non-supported platforms can lead to bans in future (never happened but who knows).

Steam is also funding an x86 tn ARM game emulator, which opens up the potential for it working on Android.

Android tablets and Chromebooks are on another crash course – will it be different this time?
Valve is funding developers working on an x86-to-ARM layer, FEX. I'm assuming that the eventual end goal would be to run Steam on Android, one of the FEX developers was commenting on trying to get FEX to work on an S8 Tab Ultra.

How the f*** does Proton works so amazingly well?
Valve is also funding another translation layer, from x86 to ARM (see FEX).

Apple GPU drivers now in Asahi Linux
Additionally, game emulation won't be optimal until someone fixes this issue from FEX-Emu, which will allow that emulator to run on Apple Silicon. QEMU-user is currently your best option though it is dead slow. Box64 is currently pretty capable, however, it will not be able to run any 32-bit libraries (which even modern games ship a few of).
What are some alternatives?
