Default Parallel chords

I was watching a tutorial

It says that for example if you are in the C Major scale

C, Dm, Em, F, G ,Am ,B dim (Diatonic chords)

you can borrow chords from all parallel modes

C Ioanian(major)
C Dorian
C Phrygian
C Lydian
C Mixolydian
C Aeolian (minor)
C Locrian

so for Example for C Aeolian (minor) we could borrow Cm, D Dim Eb, Fm, Gm, Ab, Bb

Same goes for all other modes

I would like to see all these extra chords together in a list that are derived from all those other modes

any idea of any software/site that does that?

Thanks

The most common (and useful) borrowed chords are from parallel minor scales/modes.
Don't forget Harmonic and Melodic Minor scales.
Be careful using too many borrowed chords in sequence as this might sound like a key change.
