 I would like to use a custom character sheet template. However, instead of building it from scratch, I would like to use an existing character sheet template and see it's code so I can edit it to match my own requirement. Is that possible? If so, how?

Hi Shany T.,  The code for existing character sheets can be found on Github . Note: "by Roll20" sheets are proprietary and you will not be able to find their code (not on Github).

Further explanation of the "by Roll20" sheet code. The github does have code for those sheets, but it's from before they went proprietary and so is several years out of date and should NOT be used as a guide on how to build a sheet.

No, but older ones like 5e and PF are.

Thanks. Not exactly what I was looking for, but I guess it's a good starting point.

What were you looking for? The GitHub has all all community sheets

Note that the code for things like rolltemplates might not have changed in all that time, so the old sheets might still be worth looking at, and s Scott says, the community sheets are worth looking at - there are a lot of them, and they are up to date.
