90% of the games streamers are using Streamlabs OBS, basically OBS with layout features built on top

Good to know. Thanks for your information. If I just need to record an offline version of a tutorial (without streaming it first), is it possible to use that Streamlabs OBS with that nice layout feature?

OBS, alone can do it, its the mostly used, has a learning curve but once you learn its nice. some of the other ones are quite easy

Stream labs used to be only for windows, then they came out with OBS projects for all, win, mac, linux

OBS is Minimalistic...
Stream Labs has goo built-in features but It is Bulky...

Everything that you can do in Stream Labs you will be able to do in OBS Studio but with some Extra Effort...

Using Wondershare DemoCreator can do that too. Since the webcam recording can be separated, you can add it to the video using mask like him.
Thank you for your information, I'll definitely check it out. So the overlay feature is still using the same software alone (Wondershare demo creator) or is it separated?

Wondershare is a Separate Software.. He suggested that.. You can Record your Screen and Camera Separately and Merge Them Using the Wondershare Software if I am Not Wrong...

you are right, wondershare is for recording not for live, to go live he would need a broadcaster like OBS , or streamlabs. or xsplit so it depends which he is after. they are the best out there so far
