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

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

Can anyone help me install win98?
There's also Limbo for Android, a QEMU based emulator that can emulate x86 computers. You should be able to mount a bootable Windows 98 ISO into it and install from there, ISOs can be downloaded from winworldpc.com

For Riven's 25th I'm releasing a fully restored & playable version of Riven Elementary, a long-lost Shockwave game from 1998!
Sorry, but Adobe Director was discontinued back in 2017 and it never had projectors for Android or iOS; there's no real way to convert this to run on a phone. You might have luck running it while emulating Windows XP with Limbo, but that's not something I can help with
- When Fold4 is powerful enough to emulate old Windows games at very good speeds... I absolutely love it!

Is it possible to run other OS on the shield?
XP might be possible through emulation, but not as the root OS. https://github.com/limboemu/limbo
