Implementation Strategy: Start with the AmityCommunitySetupPage for creating new communities, then integrate AmityCommunityProfilePage as the main community hub. Use specialized feed components (Pin, Image, Video) to provide organized content views. Configure navigation behaviors early to ensure smooth user flows between community creation, content viewing, and management features.
