Xamarin and React Native are aiming to get as close to that as feasible without compromising on design - which means that they explicit DON'T promise "write once, run anywhere" because the UX is not the same across platforms. What they promise instead is 'learn once, run anywhere' - that is, use the same language, tools and non-UI logic across apps. React Native is very new (but very promising) but I'd be interested to hear if anyone has experience of what development of large apps with Xamarin is like vs. Qt for mobile?
