      I have been looking on here and have had no luck so far. Does anyone know of a module to show a shopping / to do list on the MM that integrates with Alexa. I found Any List that seems to work well with Alexa and then show up on your phone for while you are out shopping. Any help is greatly appreciated.

        @qjaxxx said in MMM - Any List to work with Alexa:

        Any List

        You would need to write a module for Alexa that would show your list… With that in mind there is an IFFTT module I believe and here are some instructions on how to get Anylist to work with Alexa via IFFTT

          Thanks for the response, I am trying to make a MM for the kitchen. I am currently fighting through the coding for a calendar that list out the days of the week individually instead of the standard vertical calendar. (The coding is killing me!!!) Once I get that figured out, I am down to the final piece, I want to be able to show a shopping list, that I can tell Alexa to add to, so that I can pull out my phone at the store and see what I need. Any other MMM that would serve the purpose would be greatly appreciated. This is my first Pi project and I am struggling.

            Look at Todoist and MMM-Todoist. It has some integration/synchronization with Alexa’s lists.

              @shbatm Thanks for the response, now if I could figure out the coding for this stupid calendar to get to the next piece, I would be happy. I’m sure this isn’t difficult for those who know what they are doing but, it’s driving me insane.

                My best bit of advice is always look for an easy starting point and don’t reinvent the wheel if you don’t have to…

                Some possible inspiration… https://ourcodeworld.com/articles/read/55/top-5-best-jquery-scheduler-and-events-calendar-for-web-applications
