WebRTC is a free, open project that enables web browsers with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple JavaScript APIs.

A general platform is simply a collection of software technologies (API library), sometimes the platform has a special name to it. The platform's responsibility is to be the low level plumbing so that each app doesn't need to re-implement various low level work that is already completed by other people.

When I say the web is a UI platform, I mean that the web technologies (HTML, CSS, Javascript, SVG, MathML) can be used as the user interface to a given computer system. You can write a webmail interface to email, you can write a web interface to IRC, you can write a web interface to configure your system, you can write a web interface to report your company's data system. Just as you can do that using web technologies, you can also present the same services on the Android platform writing Android interfaces to all those services. Yes, it's possible to write interfaces using Win32, .Net, or QT5.
