how create a WebRTC (video, audio & message) chat via socket.io
on this application you can:
talked to specify user.
talked with several users at the same time (notion of room).
the user can accept or reject the call.
There are many frameworks geared towards that specifically. Check out https://simplewebrtc.com/ and http://easyrtc.com/ as solid alternatives.
Note that for multiparty calls you may need to add a server component to handle the media itself.
Take a look to WebRTC in the real world and to Building a webRTC Video Chat Service On Nodejs and Krakenjs. Also, you can see Advanced chat using node.js and socket.io – Episode 2.

I am building a multiplayer game and am using websockets as the data transfer for playing. I want to know how many ms it takes for a message to be send from the client to the server and the server to the client. I am using nodejs websocket package ws
to know how much MS it takes is not an answer anyone can directly give ... that is entirely dependent on the hardware you are running your source code on as well as the latency of the recipient

I develop an application like Whatsapp using Vuejs and Nodejs. Can I create a backend for the entire application with Socket.io? Is it possible with Socket.io Rest api? I think there should be a Rest api in parts like the login. Is it true that I prepare parts like login with socket.io? Thanks in advance.
You can use a framework like NestJs or Adonis (or many others). Those that I'm mentioning are ready to build a REST service and also use websockets (with socket.io).
It is normal to use both in a project. The socket will be an open and persistent connection to the server, in the other case the http request is a petition, so ask yourself, Does this feature need constant communication with the server or could I ask for something and thats it??
Note: You can create a whole server using only sockets (socket.io in your case) but I think that a combination of ws + http is better

What would be the best set of technologies to use if I want to make a desktop application which would fetch data from server through JSON (node.js with MYSQL).
Side note: Currently we are using angular.js for frontend but the client wants a desktop app and is adamant. Don't want to change anything server side.
If you want to go ahead with js itself then you might want to look into electronjs you can even combine it with other frontend techs such as Angular, React or VueJs.
Another option is NW.js.
Look into both and choose as per your requirements both have pros and cons.

One of the main features in my website is a simple One-to-One chat.
I'm debating whether or not I shall dedicate a server (or a cluster) for the sole purpose of this chat feature. The simpler option would be combining this feature as part of the web-servers and just scale out when necessary.
It is worth mentioning I'd like in the future to enable images transfer within the chat.
So what is the better option and why?
Well yes, Whether to use another dedicated server is not depending on how much traffic your site will have to handle. If you're dealing with images It will be a good idea to store them in another server and keep the root server clean.
