Flutter layouts are usually built using a tree of Column , Row and Stack widgets. These widgets take constructor arguments that specify rules for how the children are laid out relative to the parent, and you can also influence layout of individual children by wrapping them in Expanded , Flexible , Positioned , Align , or Center widgets.

It is also possible to build complex layouts using CustomMultiChildLayout . This is how Scaffold is implemented internally, and an example of how to use it in an app appears in the Shrine demo. You can also use LayoutBuilder or CustomPaint , or go down a layer and extend RenderObject as shown in the sector example. Doing your layouts manually like this is more work and creates more potential for errors in corner cases, so I would try to get by with the high-level layout primitives if you can.

To answer your specific questions:

Use the leading and trailing arguments to AppBar to position your app bar elements. If you want to use a Row instead, use a mainAxisAlignment of MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween .

and arguments to to position your app bar elements. If you want to use a instead, use a of . Use a Row with a crossAxisAlignment of CrossAxisAlignment.center to position the fire icon and number underneath.

with a of to position the fire icon and number underneath. Use a Column with a mainAxisAlignment of MainAxisAlignment.spaceBetween to position your top and bottom title. (You should consider using ListTile to lay out the list tiles, but you'll lose control over the exact positioning if you do this.)

Here is a code snippet that implements the design you provided. In this example I used an IntrinsicHeight to determine the height of the song tiles, but you can improve the performance by hard coding them to a fixed height.
