XAML for WPF and WINRT is not same because lot of classes which exist for WPF are missing in WINRT library. So the porting may have lots of work to do.

If you are going to convert it from WPF to UWP be sure to keep an eye out for the next few things:

  • ASync calls
  • a framework with less options but same possibilities
  • depends on your code and programme, but if you are experienced it might only take a few hours :)

.NET in WinRT is a lot more limited than the one in WPF. So the level of difficulty of porting directly depends to your app's functionality.
