While the idea in general is quite logical (especially in a shared household) and I've already given this some thought myself in the past, I simply do not have the need for this feature myself.

That being said, I am willing to accept a merge request adding support for this so if you or anyone else reading this is willing to do it, feel free to open a merge request. Here are some considerations to keep in mind:

• Support multiple lists on the same server.
• Add an (optional) password to the server application. Someone hosting it might want to restrict who stores data on their disk. While doing so, please ensure that an IP with too many incorrect attemts is banned from sending more requests.
• Add CLIENT side encryption. Privacy is key and you dont want everyone and their mother being able to access everyone elses shopping list. If you want to access a list you need to decrypt it using the correct password first.
• For the sake of consistency, I'd like the server application to use the same language and build tools as the app (namely Kotlin and gradle). Using the Spring framework is not required, but I'd say it's a good starting point.
