I've never tried to develop a mobile app before but I've read that there are frameworks for converting web apps (which are coded in AngularJS, PHP, etc.) and turning them into a mobile app. I thought this would be the easiest way to develop one (I'm really not looking for quality, just a quick way to hack something up, I'll later study Objective C and Android Studio, etc.), as I have lots of experience in AngularJS and PHP and web development, but practically zero experience in mobile app development.
I've looked at ionic and PhoneGap and was inquiring on people's experience with them and what approach I should take based on my skillset?
When you already got some experience with PHP than you should take a look at Zend Studio. It allows developers to use PHP to develop mobile applications. See the following links: Info and here is a Tutorial

I have been a php developer for a long time and very comfortable making web applications with it. I want to try to make an app for android and I phones. But it's just for fun, and I am not sure I have enough time to learn a new language right now. I could create this app in php in a short day if it were possible and would prefer not to go through the traditional learning curve of trying to figuring out sonething new. Is there a way to create an app that would just run something similar to an iframe that would then just pull all the functionality from a website?
you can create a web viewer application. First create a website, host it and just implement that site URL into your android or IOS app. it's just a few lines of code so you don't have to learn from scratch to make the whole app.

you can use react native instead of implement native android or iOS.

I made a simple Website which I want now to display also on the mobil devices.
So I want to make a App which only opens a browser without displaying the tab bar and the url bar.
I want to do this for android and for iOS.
Does anyone knows good tools for that or can I programm this also with Html as a Web app??
I don't know a lot about IOS, but in Android you can create shortcuts of website pages in your homescreen and it might work.
About what you are asking, you can both use some cross-platform tool, like Cordova. (I posted the most famous, I'm not here to explain which cross-platform tool is the best one, there are enough questions for this). Btw with Cordova you can build your own application using html, css, js.
Now, if you want something native, simply check a tutorial on how to create a webapplication(android official guide).
It's pretty simple and doesn't require that much skill.
Note#1: I think I have to tell you an economic note: publishing is not free, for example IOS costs around 100$/year. So consider if you really want do build an app only displaying a website. It's a more common and (imho) a best way of doing things, building a complete application with all buy, ... tools. Usually people dislike webapp if they can see the exact same thing with the mobile browser.
Usually apps gives something more than a simple website.
Note#2: I don't know if Apple allows you to build an app showing only a website, you should inform
Note#3: you should move your question, this community is for code, if you want some hint look for google or other platforms, there are a lot of "how to" on the net :)

I'm planning to build a REST-Centric web dashboard in PHP. Without connecting to the databases directly. All data 100% comes in and goes out through REST calls alone. I've gone through few framework for writing API like slim, silex, Wave and Lumen, gonna pick one form this (for Azure & MSSQL), My concern is whether developing the Dashboard in Angular or some other js & pure HTML will have any security issue or is it safe to go with Server-side scripts for dashboard too?
Interesting question, I'm doing research for a similar project and this is what I have so far:
All the opensource out there don't fill 100% the needs I have for the project so I can't use them (ie: not mobile ready or not tv ready or poor browser support)
Because of the above, I will need to build a custom solution:
server side: Lumen framework for the log in and for securing+processing all the dashboard requests
client side: I will use a angular.js + dashboard template (from envato or from strapui). You can also do it with jQuery.
I hope it helps

Does PHP have any classes to receive email? Do you know of any good resources about this?
Try php-imap library. It's very popular and stable.
I had this question too and I wanted to get emails in real time so I worked out my own solution with google app engine. I basically made a small dedicated google app engine app to receive and POST emails to my main site.
You can check out Emailization (a little weekend project I did to do it for you), or you this small GAE app that should do the trick.
I kinda explained it more on another question.
Hope that helps!
If you want to receive e-mail in real-time(COOL? but have to use .appspot domain. You could off course also forward it to the .appspot domain) I would advise you to have a look at google app engine which is free to use(generous quota). You could forward the email it your webserver using asynchronous request which in turn let's you do all the cool stuf you would like it to do in PHP.
Python is pretty easy to learn especially after watching this video from Brett Slatkin explaining how to "Developing and deploying an application on Google App Engine" and the snippets in the google app engine documentation should get you started in no time.

I have a prosperity application written in-house in PHP for collaboration (Basecamp knock off). We're looking for a way to add IM chat (facebook or gmail style chat), is there a opensource solution we could use with great documentation and a easy to use API?
Platform:
Linux, PHP 5, MySQL, SmartyPHP and Zend Framework.
Maybe you could use Chris Coyier's Chat Room.
http://css-tricks.com/chat2/
Another might be Ajax IM
http://ajaxim.com/
Search for Jabber. It's an open standard based IM protocol. There are several open source implementations which you can use. Also, there are several PHP Client API's which you probably can suit to your needs.
