      Can we create a Shared Projects with working code?

      This would be a MM core + Theme files/code (minus ip/email addresses/API keys of course)

      If this already exists, I will search on it or go read if you can kindly provide a link.
      I’d like to purpose an area where users can share their working code/files to help expedite their projects. I saw where users shared pics of their projects, nice! But why not share the working code?

      For example, there are hundreds of threads where folks are going back and forth trying to get their MM project off the ground.
      I for example… wanted a project that mimics DAK Board, I found several examples and chats but broken context which lead to more digging and rabbit holes of time, I just don’t have.

      So for me, MM sounds great, but requires too much time.

      I’m sure some will bash me for whatever reason for suggesting this, never fails.
      So if your comment is not polite or helpful, just don’t bother writing , save us all.

        @techeros we don’t have a shared volume anywhere for this.

        its been talked about before, we are all volunteers, and don’t have the bandwidth to support such a facility
        you could certainly source on github, gitlab, and take submissions from others, and then link this in the 3rd party list.

          @techeros part of the problem is that people ‘assume’ that data entry (making calendar entries, updating chore lists, adding to shopping lists) is ‘built in’, ’ of course’…

          we don’t have that… the design for MM is a composable(different modules for different data sources) information panel.

          data entry is phone, display is MM.

          and then there is a whole HOST of fun things, dakboard has this ‘cool’ white background…
          MM is black, and all the modules are transparent, showing the black.
          change the background to white (easy), but the modules do not auto adjust cause they are all user developed and didn’t use the built in styles…
