Hi. Does anyone have any recommendations for FOSS shopping list software for android, which has a “sync” feature so that it can be used by the whole family?

I currently rely on workflowy, and - while it works great - I’d really rather use something that was open source. Thanks in advance.

    Joplin is open source, has todo lists and syncs with any plain webDAV server, or stuff that provides webDAV, like NextCloud.

      Thanks Joplin came up on my radar a while back but I had never considered it for this task. With a webdav sync option built in, it might better handle the concurrent granular node/block changes that I hope for, than the file-at-once style of sync that syncthing currently gives me.

        It’s worth noting that there are two ways to use Joplin for to-dos: you can embed a complete list within a note, or make a bunch of ‘todo-able’ notes in a folder that can be individually checked off as completed from the note list itself. I’d usually say the advantage to using separate notes is that each note can have its own content within the body of the note, but with your use case of shared list syncing between people you’re also less likely to end up with conflicts if people aren’t editing one large note, since Joplin isn’t a platform that sends all the connected clients updates in real-time.
