I guess the first question is whether Qt is available for ARM on
Windows. I would expect LyX itself to compile.

The Windows ARM support in Qt (https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/windows.html) is currently in technical preview, and applications have to be cross-compiled from an x86-64 Windows machine and deployed to target. With upcoming Qt 6.8, Windows on ARM will one of the standard desktop platforms supported in Qt. However, I didn't find any instruction on how to do the cross-compile.

I would guess it could even be done on Linux. I used to build the Windows package on Linux before Eugene came along, though of course that was for x86_64.
