Dungeon & Dragons favorite character sheets?
I have started playing D&D basic with my family as a way to spend time together away from devices.
I found the original character sheets:

Anyone else have favorite character sheets for D&D?
My group is using morepurplemorebetter's character sheets. It's a 30MB PDF that does all the heavy lifting with javascript and it looks gorgeous. It also has easy editing and modifiers for all the fields so you aren't forced into RAW like with most sheets - this one is very flexible. It contains all of the content released so far in the books (up to but not yet including Tasha's) and you can create XML files of your own to load any third party or homebrew content. There's lots of 3rd party scripts in the sticky post at /r/mpmb/.
Downside is that it requires the real Adobe Acrobat reader. None of the open source PDF programs support the kind of coding he's done.
Runner up to that would be PCGen, an older open source project that supports multiple games including D&D. It's not as pretty, but just about as complete/functional for D&D.
Wow, that is awesome!
