Not directly by app developers. Everybody uses only WinRT/.NET based managed languages/runtimes/libraries/frameworks etc.

Who uses WinRT besides Microsoft employees, or APIs that are only available in WinRT like MIDI 2.0?

Regardless, WinRT is COM.

It only adds IInspectable as additional interface alongside IUnknown, and .NET metadata files instead of type libraries.
