Windows Runtime UI component

I've heard about Windows Runtime Components, but seems like they are not applicable to UI components. Is it possible to create cross platform UI component (for example C#+xaml based component) which will run across all the projections C#, C++, javascript? I know projections are very different and need special environment to run, but if it's possible to create hybrid non-UI components maybe it's possible to create cross-platform UI components.

You can create components which expose UI to XAML apps, but you cannot create components which expose UI to JS applications - that's because the JS UI stack is dramatically different from the XAML rendering stack.
