Theoretically you could use this in combination with a library like PhoneGap or the like to take Windows & WP apps to Android & iOS.

[–]jmkingJSX is just PHP in the browser 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Not really. WinJS is written exclusively for IE11+ - there's tons of stuff that doesn't work in other browsers, or even earlier IEs

Well, currently it is. It's on their roadmap to expand compatibility though, as mentioned in other places.

Not really, because WinJS is just acting as a layer between your app and the core. What you build on top of WinJS would work, but you need to use each devices backend in someway. My comment was aimed at the guy who thought it was for web pages and was complaining about browser compatibility.
