We thought about looking into a Sky calendar, but naturally for what they were offering we thought there had to be a self hosted solution.

Grocy seems to fit the bill and then some. The next challenge would be getting a touch display and mini computer to act as a kiosk to display it in the house somewhere.

Anyone else using grocy?

    1. This gets our family calendar off of google.
    2. This has integrated tasks & chores the whole family can track status on.
    3. Even at 40 my ADHD is powerful.
    4. I’m a not spending $700 (and a yearly subscription) on the first two points when this exists for free[1].
    5. I’m already self hosting other things.
    6. Even at 40 my ADHD is powerful.

    I just wanted to find out if people used it and if the interface/calendar/process was shit.


    1. not including electricity, cost of display. ↩︎

      I honestly think its awesome. I live in a cave of isolation, so while it seems wildly unnecessary for me, if you could pull it off I would legitimately love to see it in action. It really seems like a neurodivergent with a large family’s wet dream.
