Local news report translated with deepl:
There has been further unrest at and around the Elbit branch in Ulm: According to the police, several individuals broke into the building in the Böfingen district early on Monday morning. At around 3:30 a.m., security personnel reported several individuals on Eberhard-Finckh-Straße in Ulm.
They threw paint bombs at the entrance area and set off smoke bombs. In addition, the suspects sprayed graffiti with “presumed political content” on the parking lot, according to a press release from the Ulm police and the Baden-Württemberg State Criminal Police Office. Some of the activists are even said to have broken into the building. To do so, they smashed several windows on the building.
The police did not officially confirm either the name of the company or the fact that the troublemakers were activists. However, several sources at our editorial office confirm this. The police first surrounded the company building and were able to arrest several people on an upper floor without resistance shortly thereafter. The State Security and Anti-Terrorism Center of the Baden-Württemberg State Criminal Police Office has taken over further investigations.
Protests against the company repeatedly take place in front of its building and in Ulm city center. Pro-Palestinian demonstrators accuse the company of deliberately producing “lethal drones” for use in the Gaza Strip. Criticism of the state of Israel also regularly features in these demonstrations. In the past, demonstrators have often called on the Ulm city administration to close the Elbit branch in Ulm. However, according to its own statements, Elbit in Ulm primarily manufactures modern radio communication systems, night vision devices, drones, and cyber and command systems—including for the German Armed Forces.

They're very similar in function afaik, they both run a windows vm hidden in the background and integrate the windows apps alongside your Linux programs. It's supposed to be fully compatible with all windows program except kernel anti-cheat.
WinBoat is newer and I think offers a nicer interface and a lot easier setup, WinApps is older so may be easier to find support/documentation on. I'd probably recommend starting with WinBoat first.

Does it get windows' window decoration or your window manager's decoration ?
Is it possible to display this application window to another computer, standalone, not as a whole desktop shared window ?
If it is possible to display such an application over the network, would it be possible to display this application to an android phone ?
thanks

WinBoat is completely different, this is actually running full windows in the background, and then only displaying the apps you want from it. There will be significantly more system resources used, and you won't be able to run windows apps until the windows VM has started in the background, adding a startup delay. However the advantage is that it will support more software than wine does, with fewer issues.
Wine will always be the better option when it works, but for stuff that doesn't work this is a decent option.
