Agora UIKit for Android simplifies the process of setting up a streaming application by allowing developers to create an application as easily as placing a view in their app's layout. The module includes features such as automatic layout of all video streams, displaying active speakers, and buttons for disabling camera or microphone. Customization options include positioning elements, changing colors, selecting button sets, adjusting video settings, and more. Developers can also add custom buttons to the enabledButtons set and use AgoraSingleVideoView to place and organize video views independently.
