Smart button as a connected doorbell? (lemmy.world)

Hello. Can anyone recommend a smart button that I could use as a connected doorbell? We already have camera coverage on the front porch so no need for video doorbell. Would prefer zwave but am open to zigbee as well. Our front porch is covered but am concerned about using an indoor button outside, mostly because of temps, esp in winter.

Make people strike two loose wires together to close the contact instead of a button :D
