box86 is a userspace emulation software that allows you to run Linux x86 applications on an ARM device such as the Raspberry Pi.
Using this software, we can run a variety of x86 software on our Raspberry Pi. This supported software includes applications like Zoom or games like World of Goo.
There are some caveats to using box86 on your Raspberry Pi. The first is that it can only run x86 applications. Software built for 64-bit will not run at all.
