Whenever one talks about Native vs Hybrid apps, the first thing that comes to mind is the basic conceptual difference between the two. So help me to know Basic diffrence for this.
Native APP
Native apps are developed for a particular platform. Like android apps are native apps. When it comes to user experience, they are the fastest and most reliable.
Hybrid APP
Hybrid apps are developed for both native and web applications. They can also use cross-compatible web technologies. Hybrid apps are typically easier and faster to develop than native apps.

I am developing one application in react native I am new to it. So curious to know that on which platform api should be build?
Thanks
Depending on your application, there may no reason for API at all.
If you need to store data on the server then API may be build in any technology you feel comfortable with. As far as the React Native goes, it supports many ways to connect to API, including both REST and GraphQL.
I see WebRTC is the the best way for developing it. But there are some paid frameworks in market for establisting video chat between wide range of clients like Web-Web, Web-Mobile(IOS, Andriod, Windows, etc.,).
Web-Web communication flow is very simple to implement. Now, I want the same for Web-to-Mobile and vice versa without using any external frameworks built on top of Native WebRTC. Please suggest me some best approach to achieve this.
The latest Chrome on Android is WebRTC friendly, that means if you have a web app that implements WebRTC. It will be working on Android's Chrome.
If you decided to create you own native app that implements WebRTC. Here are some great sources.
iOS WebRTC: https://webrtc.org/native-code/ios/
Android WebRTC: https://webrtc.org/native-code/android/
Follow the instructions in each allow you to build the native WebRTC framework that you can later on import them into your native projects.
The WebRTC APIs are somewhat related to the ones you are using in your web application. You need to do more documentation reading for those as you are using the official framework that built from the source, not a third library.
Before starting you need to review and test platform to make sure it works fine for all your target user categories. You can do that by reviewing references and also testing some existing apps for user types you plan to support.
As you mentioned wide range of clients, you need to identify the limitations of WebRTC technology. You can also evaluate other technologies: in example you could reliably serve most client types with mobile and web apps that use RTMP.
Quick simple question, we are in the process of engaging a development firm to build a reach native frontend, magento 2 backend mobile app using REST APIs to have the sites communicate with each other.
The solution was originally mobile only and being developed for IOS, Android and Mobile web. My questions is that can the solution in react native be extended to desktop web? some of the B2B features are being requested from us to be available on desktops.
How do we extend the functionality to desktop web and only user react native ?
You can look at the promising React Native for Web
Using Asp.net MVC 4, can we develop android mobile app and window mobile app also. visual studio 2012 is enough or i have to add some other tools, while i am searching in google i found xamarin like that any other tools or we can directly develop the mobile app with out third party tools. can you help me.
I'll try to answer this question although I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "enough".
1) Regarding the server side, mvc4 is a great option for choosing the server side, as you communicate in rest protocol, and I chose this product as my app backend.
2) Regarding the client side, if you are already familiar with C#, then Xamarin is a wise choice for you, note that you need a license and its not cheap.
I'm using Xamarin for developing iOS & Android and although the framework is not as stable as others, I still believe its the right choice for a C# developer, as its improving significantly over time
Going through the IBM Worklight product documentation,the product looks great for building hybrid or native applications. However for building mobile web (with responsive web design) what are the specific advantages one can get from worklight?
For (the) Mobile Web (environment), I don't think that at this time there is much left.
However, you do still:
get to use Worklight Adapters and its extensive integration abilities, which do make it easier to connect to various backends
use Cordova to access some device native capabilities
use the WL Client JavaScript API
