About Agora​

Agora is the leading video, voice and live interactive streaming platform, helping developers deliver rich in-app experiences—including embedded voice and video chat, real-time recording, interactive live streaming, and real-time messaging. You can read more about the Agora SDK here.

Why use the Agora Extension instead of Agora directly?​

  • There is no need to think about Agora-specific integration details, you can use the well-known audio graph based approach that Switchboard SDK provides.
  • You’ll be able to focus on the application features, the Agora Extension handles audio IO and scheduling for you.
  • You’ll still have in depth access to the various audio processing layers if you need, in a neat and convenient way.
  • Mix and match many well known third party audio libraries with Agora that are supported, without the need to convert audio formats.
