Yes. You will need to create plugins for different platforms that you use. You can use the base set of API's everywhere but if something does not exist, then you'll have to create a plugin for it in the platform's native language. You can contribute these plugins as open source back tot he community so others can use it as well.

See the plugin development guide here:
