Reference for Uniformization Theorem

Question

I would appreciate if someone could point me to some introductory literature/resources where I can learn about Poincare's Uniformization Theorem at a basic level.

Any good powerpoint notes, short papers or video lectures would be nice. I want to learn about the result in general, the proof, how it relates to other important theorem's in geometry and real-life applications.

Thank you.

See Uniformization of Riemann Surfaces by Kevin Timothy Chan and (paywalled) The Uniformization Theorem by William Abikoff.
