We are looking to deep link our mobile application from Web page.
As per apple's documentation it require to have apple-app-site-association json file at root of https://xxx-salesforce.com/
Can anybody tell me how to place apple-app-site-association json file at root of salesforce domain?
We are using a visual force page where we want to put our app links.

You write that you are interested in deep linking into your mobile application from a web page. As you mention the AASA file, you must be talking about an iOS app and not an Android app. Check this link for a good overview of what is required to set up deep linking to iOS apps: https://blog.branch.io/how-to-setup-universal-links-to-deep-link-on-apple-ios-9/. Note that you would have to configure your own AASA file and host that on your own domain, not the Salesforce domain. You would then be able to use the deep links you create on Salesforce pages - or any other web pages, for that matter.
If I have misunderstood and you are actually hoping to deep link into an app that has been written by Salesforce, well this is a situation where Salesforce themselves would need to host the AASA file and configure the iOS project to support the deep linking scheme. This is something that only Salesforce is in a position to do.

I built a website with reactjs and the client wants that the web automatically creates a link on the phone home screen that opens chrome to the specific url of my website.
Is this possible without wrapping the reactjs with another framework like Cordoba, Ionic or React Native?
Thank you so much
A web application has no access to the device's internal APIs. Web applications are naturally subject to the browser's features, restrictions and limitations in which it is running on. Even native applications has to request access from the user to have such permissions. What your client asks is, regretably, impossible.
I agree with the above answer by #Lux Ilustre. You can't add the application link to the phones homepage without the users permission. But it is possible to make your website installable with a PWA. You can create a PWA with a manifest file and a service-worker file which makes possible to install the website to the users phone and load assets from cache which makes it possible to make some parts of your website function offline.
Suppose I have a video hosting site, like youtube. When user clicks on a link on the site, I want to open a WinRT application for a better viewing experience, how would I do that?
How do I pass parameters into the WinRT application, to let it know what video it should stream? I need to be able to go back and forth, so I assume I can introduce a hyperlink to go back to the site from the app.
The other possibility is to embed the application on the site itself. How would that work? Can you still inline an applet style application on the site itself (eg. flash/silverlight)?
It is possible to launch a Windows Store app, given that you know the URI scheme associated with that application. For example, the Games app has the xboxgames: associated with it. If you insert a link with that URI scheme, the shell will pick it up as an internal reference. Read more details here.
You might also be interested in reading more on how to connect your website to a Windows Store app here.
Edit: It is possible to have an associated url: see accepted answer from Den Delimarsky.
Alternatively, a Windows Store app can declare file type associations. So you could make the user download a file (for example "video.customExtension"), which could contain informations, such as the video the app should play. In the same way as it works for Office Live Meeting when you download a meeting file to start a meeting.
If the user download that kind of file from your website, and that he doesn't have the corresponding app installed, he will be prompted to look for an app that can open that file in the store, and he will find your app.
And finally, no you can't embbed an Windows 8 Store app in a webpage.
Without using Google Checkout, I would like to provide a link that allows a user to download digital content directly to their Google Drive account. Does anyone have advice on how this might achieved?
We have our own shopping cart system and host my own content.
We simply wish to provide a link to our content that transfers the digital content to the location of the consumer's choosing.

We currently don't provide such widgets for web developers. You can however use the REST API to accomplish such a thing.
Please refer to the Drive API Documentation for how to do it server-side. For a client-side application (full JavaScript), you can refer to the StackOverflow answer.
The Drive SDK currently requires applications to be installed in a user's account through the Chrome Web Store; we are actively working on making the story better for users and developers so stay tuned!
Please help me with one thing: I need to be able to forward a bada device to a certain application store page. This page should let the device to install the application using its native installation method, just like Android market or iTunes.
Granted that I know the link to my application on the web, where do I get the link to forward the device to?

I want to implement "mobile website provider" tool. Basically, It intake desktop website url and generate a mobile version of website without edit/add additional content to the desktop website. I am planning to design a product like (what mofuse.com does. This website create mobile websites). This tool should be hassle free to client(who are not tech savvy.)
1.Q) I want to know kind of functionality involved in this process.
2.Q) In Java Technology, I need the tool set and functionality of this actitity.
As I am new to this mobile application environment. Any information(web links) regarding this will be appreciated.
Update:
its not like skweezer.com.
I had a website and I want to "mobile"ize it. 1) What kind of java tool set I have to use to create mobile web site? 2) How to test in multiple mobile devices 3) How the domain name will be created for mobile websites.
Check out our Wapple Architect tech (http://wapple.net) - we allow you to use the same content from web to mobile, but if it's mobile, instead of outputting the html, use a web service to turn it into the right content for that particular handset.
Mobilizes the same domain, no need for m.yourdomain.com or anything like that.
Check http://wapple.net on a mobile for example!
there are certain plugins which mobilise your website .
they check user agent and if user agent is of mobile browser they load another css of mobile and if you want to redirect some another redirect it ther.
you dont have to buy separate domain make sub domain or cname like
m.yourdomain.ccom
wap.yaourdomain.com
try some javacripts code which detect browser type and redirect accordingly.
