Shopping List

The first three things on your list in a compact column, for the kitchen wall.

For the kitchen wall, where the next few things to buy should be visible to everyone. Shopping List shows the first three items in the list's own order, in a compact column that reads without touch controls. Ticking an item off works only on an authorized touch screen.

From the Denframe Library · not part of the app. Add it to your Denframe. This website does not connect to or control your home.

Add it to your Denframe

Opens Shopping List in your own Denframe's Library, where you choose Get. Only its id is in the link: nothing about your home comes here.

In Denframe: Studio → Library → Get more → Add by id.

  • Denframe in Home Assistant opens only through Home Assistant’s sidebar, which a link can’t reach: copy the id, then in Denframe choose Studio → Library → Get more → Add by id.
  • The desktop app answers only on its own computer (127.0.0.1), at a port that can change: open Denframe from the app, then use Add by id.
  • Your browser opens your Denframe’s address itself. Some browsers ask before a public website opens an address on your home network (Local Network Access): allow it, or use Add by id.
