A few days ago I discovered "TVMaster" (https://noben.org/tvmaster) by way of @keyle

It's a great looking app and it helps you manage the TV shows you watch via this very nice interface.

But I wanted more 😛 I wanted to monitor both TV shows and movies I wanted to watch. I also wanted to be able to interact with external sites (since I use several) to monitor the progress on shows and movies.

I’d already created the movie watchlist solution several times in different ways, but this would give me one app which would handle everything and that seemed a rather attractive proposition.

So got to work, and after about a day of work, I have a new app … and the project for this weekend 🙂

Basic functionality — done!

The next part is a bit more complicated since I need to allow the user to connect various sites with the app. But I’m hoping that if it’s not a single-week project, then it’ll only be a week more.

I guess we’ll see?

@f Interesting! I’d be keen to test. I’ve tried a dozen different options and wound up using a shared Reminders list with my partner.

@Daojoan I posted a couple of days ago about an Obsidian-based solution which was really easy to set up (about 30 minutes tops) that works really well. But unless you have Obsidian syncing, it probably won’t work for the sharing part 😞

As far as this one goes (the macOS app) will ping you at the end of the week if you’re interested to test. I still need a few things working for me to be happy about the solution even without the external service integration and you probably don’t want to test a half-baked solution anyway 😛

@f Great start! 👍

@keyle Thanks 🙂
