I want to implement Tab Bar in my application having length 2 named "Need Help" and "Help Requests". In "Need Help" tab, I want my first container (i.e. Upload data to Firestore Database) and in "Help Requests" tab, I want my second container (i.e. Retrieve data from Firestore Database). I am new to flutter and will be very much grateful to you if you can help me.

It's very straightforward to implement a simple TabBar in your app. All you need is a TabController and two widgets called TabBar and TabBarView. Here is a simple example:
DefaultTabController(
length: 2,
child: Scaffold(
appBar: AppBar(
bottom: TabBar(tabs: [
Tab(text: 'Tab 1'),
Tab(text: 'Tab 2'),
]),
),
body: TabBarView(children: [
// Tab 1
Container(color: Colors.red),
// Tab 2
Container(color: Colors.blue),
]),
),
);
Now all you need to do is to replace children inside TabBarView with whatever you want to display.
