Code:

As I mentioned here, you can use NestedScrollView like this:

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
  return Scaffold(
    body: DefaultTabController(
      length: 2,
      child: NestedScrollView(
        headerSliverBuilder: (context, value) {
          return [
            SliverAppBar(
              title: Text('AppBar'),
              pinned: true,
              floating: true,
              bottom: TabBar(
                tabs: [
                  Tab(icon: Icon(Icons.call), text: 'Call'),
                  Tab(icon: Icon(Icons.message), text: 'Message'),
                ],
              ),
            ),
          ];
        },
        body: TabBarView(
          children: [
            FlutterLogo(),
            FlutterLogo(),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    ),
  );
}

Answer 2

If I understood you correctly, following code should make the app bar hide on scroll while TabBar remains visible:

Null safe code:

class _SomePageState extends State<SomePage> with SingleTickerProviderStateMixin {
  late final TabController _tabController;

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    _tabController = TabController(length: 2, vsync: this);
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: NestedScrollView(
        headerSliverBuilder: (BuildContext context, bool innerBoxIsScrolled) {
          return <Widget>[
            SliverAppBar(
              title: Text('Weight Tracker'),
              pinned: true,
              floating: true,
              forceElevated: innerBoxIsScrolled,
              bottom: TabBar(
                tabs: <Tab>[
                  Tab(text: 'STATISTICS'),
                  Tab(text: 'HISTORY'),
                ],
                controller: _tabController,
              ),
            ),
          ];
        },
        body: TabBarView(
          controller: _tabController,
          children: <Widget>[
            StatisticsPage(),
            HistoryPage(),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Answer 3

I was able to make the floating appbar with tabbar similar to that of WhatsApp by using SliverAppbar with NestedScrollView.

Do add floatHeaderSlivers: true, in NestedScrollView and

pinned: true, floating: true, in SliverAppBar

Link to sample code

import 'dart:math';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(
        primarySwatch: Colors.blue,
        visualDensity: VisualDensity.adaptivePlatformDensity,
      ),
      home: CustomSliverAppbar(),
    );
  }
}

class CustomSliverAppbar extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _CustomSliverAppbarState createState() => _CustomSliverAppbarState();
}

class _CustomSliverAppbarState extends State<CustomSliverAppbar>
    with SingleTickerProviderStateMixin {
  TabController _tabController;

  @override
  void initState() {
    _tabController = TabController(
      initialIndex: 0,
      length: 2,
      vsync: this,
    );
    super.initState();
  }

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: NestedScrollView(
        floatHeaderSlivers: true,
        headerSliverBuilder: (BuildContext context, bool innerBoxIsScrolled) {
          return <Widget>[
            SliverAppBar(
              title: Text(
                "WhatsApp type sliver appbar",
              ),
              centerTitle: true,
              pinned: true,
              floating: true,
              bottom: TabBar(
                  indicatorColor: Colors.black,
                  labelPadding: const EdgeInsets.only(
                    bottom: 16,
                  ),
                  controller: _tabController,
                  tabs: [
                    Text("TAB A"),
                    Text("TAB B"),
                  ]),
            ),
          ];
        },
        body: TabBarView(
          controller: _tabController,
          children: [
            TabA(),
            const Center(

            color: Colors.primaries[Random().nextInt(Colors.primaries.length)],
          );
        },
      ),
    );
  }
}

Using DefaultTabController

DefaultTabController(
      length: 2,
      child: new Scaffold(
        body: new NestedScrollView(
          headerSliverBuilder: (BuildContext context, bool innerBoxIsScrolled) {
            return <Widget>[
              new SliverAppBar(
                title: Text("Application"),
                floating: true,
                pinned: true,
                snap: true,
                bottom: new TabBar(
                  tabs: <Tab>[
                    new Tab(text: "T"),
                    new Tab(text: "B"),
                  ], // <-- total of 2 tabs
                ),
              ),
            ];
          },
          body: new TabBarView(
            children: <Widget>[
              Center(
                  child: Text(
                'T Tab',
                style: TextStyle(fontSize: 30),
              )),
              Center(
                  child: Text(
                'B Tab',
                style: TextStyle(fontSize: 30),
              )),
            ],
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );

Answer 6

I suggest that you have to go through SliverAppBar and SliverList To achieve your layout. Following code may help you to understand that.

import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(new MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return new MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      home: new MyHomePage(),
      debugShowCheckedModeBanner: false,
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  @override
  _MyHomePageState createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {

    List buildTextViews(int count) {
      List<Widget> strings = List();
      for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {
        strings.add(new Padding(padding: new EdgeInsets.all(16.0),
            child: new Text("Item number " + i.toString(),
                style: new TextStyle(fontSize: 20.0))));
      }
      return strings;
    }

    return Scaffold(
        body: new CustomScrollView(slivers: <Widget>[
          const SliverAppBar(
            title: const Text('Sliver App Bar'),
          ),
          new SliverList(
              delegate: new SliverChildListDelegate(buildTextViews(50)))
        ])
    );
  }
}
