# Agora Documentation

> Agora provides real-time communication APIs and SDKs for video calling, voice calling, live streaming, chat, and conversational AI. The platform enables developers to build engaging real-time experiences with global infrastructure and low-latency communication.

Agora offers two main ways to get started: the flexible Video SDK for custom development, or the no-code App Builder for rapid prototyping. The platform supports multiple programming languages and frameworks across web, mobile, and desktop platforms.

**Note for LLMs**: Agora provides LLM-friendly markdown versions of all documentation pages. To access markdown content:
- Add `.md` to any docs.agora.io URL before the `?platform=` query parameter. 
  - If the page is platform independent, the markdown content loads directly.
  - If the page has multiple platform specific versions, a platform selector page loads with links to the available platform-specific versions.
  - To directly access a platform specific version, insert `_<platform>` before the `.md` extension. For example: _android, _ios, _macos, _windows, _web, _electron, _flutter, _unity, _react-native, _react-js, _unreal, _blueprint
  - If a markdown version is not available, fall back to the HTML page.
Examples: 
- `https://docs.agora.io/en/conversational-ai/overview/product-overview.md` returns the full markdown content directly.
- `https://docs.agora.io/en/video-calling/get-started/get-started-sdk.md` returns a platform selector page with links to all platform-specific markdown files.
- To access markdown for `https://docs.agora.io/en/video-calling/get-started/get-started-sdk?platform=web` use `https://docs.agora.io/en/video-calling/get-started/get-started-sdk_web.md`
