Is there a master list somewhere of compatible parts for the Inventor Hub (I think the same as Technic Large Hub 88016)

I bought my son a Mindstorms Inventor set back in like February 2021 thinking we’d be able to buy cool expansions for like at least a decade. But, he was a little too young both to build and program, so it’s collected dust since then.

He recently expressed interest in it again, and so we built one of the 5 robots. But, he doesn’t want to disassemble it to make anything else. So I was just going to buy an expansion set.

Well… I just saw that the whole IP was discontinued like a year ago… So I’m trying to find parts that are compatible with the hub, so I can see about getting them individually.

When I look on lego.com and open listings for individual parts, I see “Connect to the 88016”, but I’m wondering if other parts will work (such as Color and Distance Sensor 88007, which says it’s compatible with the 88009 Hub, but not explicitly the 88016 large hub).

So I guess two questions:

  1. Are every motor/sensor with male plugs that physically fit into 88016 compatible with it (and with the Scratch software)
  2. Is there a master list of compatible motors/sensors for 88016

Edit / Follow-Up: are the Spike parts compatible? (45678)

All parts with the same connection type will work, such as powered up, boost, and control+. The Inventor’s kit system is also identical to the educator-focused SPIKE PRIME, which has many very useful parts, so above anything else I’d recommend getting that, or even just parts from that. For finding parts, the website Rebrickable.com has an awesome database.
