Windows Phone 8 Apps Ported on to RT

[HarisA1]

I was wondering if windows phone 8 apps would ever be able to run on windows rt. Is it being done, will it ever be done, is it possible? Thanks.

Unfortunately, the WP8 and RT/PC stores are separate. Rumors and discussions have been floating around that they will be unifying the store, maybe in the next major WP8 update. For someone that has a Surface RT and Nokia Lumia 928, it would be lovely to have one store similar to that of iOS and Android.

It cannot be directly ported, but with a relatively small effort, a dev can recreate the same app on WP and RT using a majority of their code
