how to associate tabs for each split window in vim

Question

I was checking the recent atom editor with the vim plugin, and one feature that i really liked is that each split window can have tabs associated to it, i would like to know if this is possible with the vim , are there any plugins in vim to do this? I have attached an image below to describe the windows and tabs.

TIA

so you want to have two tabs that show two identical layouts? — perreal, Jan 29 '16 at 05:34

No, it's not possible.

In Vim, tab pages are containers for windows and windows are containers for buffers and there's no way around that.
