Package Overview

Package selection guidance compiled from public package information, community data, and project usage.

An enhanced version of Flutter's NestedScrollView that provides overscroll support for both the nested and parent scroll views, ensuring a smooth and consistent scrolling experience across all platforms. It improves upon the default behavior by allowing natural overscroll effects in both layers, making it ideal for complex scrollable layouts like app bars with scrollable content beneath. The package is actively maintained and compatible with Android, iOS, Web, macOS, Windows, and Linux.

Use cases

  • Complex app bar layouts
  • Nested scrollable content with overscroll
  • Scrolling with parallax effects
  • Responsive UIs with layered scrolling
  • Hybrid scrollable interfaces

Key features

  • Overscroll support for both nested and parent scroll views
  • Seamless scrolling experience
  • Cross-platform compatibility
  • Improved scroll physics
  • Support for custom scroll behaviors
  • Active maintenance and updates

Suitable for

  • Developers building advanced scrollable UIs
  • Apps requiring layered scrolling with visual feedback
  • Projects needing consistent overscroll behavior
  • Teams targeting multiple platforms
  • UI designers implementing dynamic scroll effects

Considerations

  • May increase complexity for simple scroll layouts
  • Requires careful handling of scroll controllers
  • Potential performance impact with deeply nested scrolls
  • Not necessary for basic scrollable widgets
  • Best suited for advanced use cases over standard NestedScrollView

⚡️ Get Started

Install NestedScrollViewPlus by running the following command:

flutter pub add nested_scroll_view_plus

Here’s a basic example:

import 'package:nested_scroll_view_plus/nested_scroll_view_plus.dart';

// Step 1: Replace `NestedScrollView` with `NestedScrollViewPlus`
NestedScrollViewPlus(
  headerSliverBuilder: (context, innerScrolled) => <Widget>[
    // ... insert your header sliver widgets here
  ],
  body: CustomScrollView(
    // Step 2: [🚨IMPORTANT] Set the physics of `CustomScrollView` to `AlwaysScrollableScrollPhysics`
    physics: const BouncingScrollPhysics(
      parent: AlwaysScrollableScrollPhysics(),
    ),
    slivers: <Widget>[
      // ... insert your body sliver widgets here
    ],
  ),
);

For additional examples, please visit the scroll_master repository. It includes features such as pull-to-refresh for NestedScrollView, combined scrolling for scrollview and tabview, and more.

🚗 Examples

1. Loading Indicator
NestedScrollViewPlus(
  overscrollBehavior: OverscrollBehavior.outer,
  headerSliverBuilder: (context, innerScrolled) => <Widget>[
    // Place the refresh indicator at the top of the header slivers
    CupertinoSliverRefreshControl(
      onRefresh: () async {
        // fetching data
      },
    ),
    // Add your custom AppBar or other header sliver widgets here.
  ],
  // ...
)
2. Accessing the Inner or Outer Scroll Controller

To access the inner or outer scroll controller of a NestedScrollViewPlus, you can use a GlobalKey<NestedScrollViewStatePlus> to get its state.

👉 Example
class _ExampleState extends State<Example> {
  // 1. Create a GlobalKey
  final GlobalKey<NestedScrollViewStatePlus> myKey = GlobalKey();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return NestedScrollViewPlus(
      // 2. Set the key to NestedScrollViewStatePlus
      key: myKey,
      // ...,
    );
  }

  @override
  void initState() {
    super.initState();
    WidgetsBinding.instance.addPostFrameCallback((timeStamp) {
      // 3. Access the inner or outer scroll controller using GlobalKey<NestedScrollViewStatePlus>
      myKey.currentState!.innerController.addListener(_handleInnerScroll);
      myKey.currentState!.outerController.addListener(_handleOuterScroll);
    });
  }

  void _handleInnerScroll() {
    final innerController = myKey.currentState!.innerController;
    if (innerController.positions.length == 1) {
      print('Scrolling inner nested scrollview: ${innerController.offset}');
    }
  }

  void _handleOuterScroll() {
    final outerController = myKey.currentState!.outerController;
    if (outerController.positions.length == 1) {
      print('Scrolling outer nested scrollview: ${outerController.offset}');
    }
  }
}
3. Preserve Scroll Positions of Inner CustomScrollViews

To preserve the scroll positions of inner CustomScrollViews, you can add a PageStorageKey to the CustomScrollView widget. Here's an example:

CustomScrollView(
  key: PageStorageKey<String>('your-unique-key'),
  slivers: <Widget>[
    // ...,
  ],
),

By assigning a unique key to the CustomScrollView, Flutter's PageStorage mechanism will store and restore the scroll position of the inner CustomScrollViews, allowing you to maintain the scroll positions even when the widget tree is rebuilt.
