Say I have an existing mobile app built on Ionic. Now I need to have a website version of the app so users can access it via desktop too.
Is there any documentation that suggest this is possible?
I think you're looking for Progressive Web Apps. Ionic does cater for such, just google for the term "Ionic PWA" example below.

I am trying to build for website so I need to know that.what is progressive web app? and all devices or only moniter.
Progressive web apps are web apps that can look and act like native apps.
django-progressive-web-app may be a good place to start your research about using Django for your project. I've never used it myself, but it looks promising.
I am creating a ionic mobile app for android and ios. There is this requirement to have a feature where two people can chat in this app.
Are there any existing free/paid API's that can be easily integrated with my application to achieve this task?
Firebase has a demo app that does exactly that:

I have a Google App Engine application with a front-end that was created using GWT. How would I go about creating a mobile app equivalent of this? In particular I would prefer to use GWT to create the front-end here as well. Does Google have any thing within GWT specifically designed for creating mobile apps? Is there already some existing structure in GWT which takes the front-end you've created and makes it scalable so that it can be easily transformed into a mobile app? Thank you much!
You should also definitively check mgwt + gwt-phonegap. It's a cross platform gwt/phonegap solution.
It depends a lot on whether you wish to build cross platform as in phonegap or keep it simple as in mobilewebapp example provided in sample folder in gwt zip file you download.
The mobilewebapp sample does not access smartphone features but will be accessible by browser on any mobile. phonegap or similar frameworks like titanium,sencha provide api to access smartphone features.

I want to try using trigger.io.
We have a Web App and using GAE.
How can we test our Web App with trigger.io?
I see that on the "WEB" section of the toolkit there's only a spot for "Heroku".
Is it possible?
Do we need to migrate?
How can i test our web app with android? I couldn't find a place to direct it to our index.html.
Thanks a lot.
The web section in the Toolkit basically lets you deploy your mobile app as a mobile website, based on Node.js.
If you have an existing web app that you'd like to use as the backend for a mobile app, then it's a case of exposing some sort of HTTP API which your mobile app then interacts with.
Having the mobile app just receive JSON from GAE, build its HTML views and present them to the user works really well.
I am looking to supplement a website i am building using web2py with a mobile app. Titanium seems good to work with and was wondering if i should just use AWS for my backend on both my website and mobile app. I am also interested in an answer if i was just developing the mobile app only not a website as well.
Kind Regards
I created a simple API to access data from an app I developed with Titanium. It is hosted on EC2 and I have been very happy with the performance so far.
