Some Notices

  1. If you want to use default navigation bar, you can use simply this way;
CupertinoPageScaffold(
  navigationBar: DefaultCupertinoNavigationBar( // same as CupertinoNavigationBar but little differencies
  backgroundColor: CupertinoColors.systemGrey.withOpacity(0.5),
  middle: const Text('CupertinoNavigationBar Sample'),
  )
);
  1. Without using default navigation bar, You can use SuperCupertinoNavigationBar without largeTitle. Simply use this value;
CupertinoPageScaffold(  //inside CupertinoPageScaffold
  child: SuperCupertinoNavigationBar(
    largeTitleType: AppBarType.NormalNavbarWithoutSearch, // This will make appbar like CupertinoNavigationBar
    middle: Text("Home")
    slivers: [
      // Any Sliver here
    ],
  ),
);

in these case, you should be aware of you will use custom scroll view and sliver widgets.
