There are a multitude of reasons you may need to review your code without editing it . A few scenarios I have come across are clients needing to review work a 3rd party has created. Maybe you had someone else create your website and you aren't sure what color they used to for a particular button. Or, maybe you finally are getting around to editing a website that has gone through so many revisions by a multitude of people and colors are seeming the slightest bit off.

Cut to—me working in Google Sheets and trying to figure out how to customize my current time tracking system. My goal was to create formulas that would simplify my process (but I'll spare you the tedious details for another post). In order to not mess with all of the hours tracked for multiple projects I created copies of my Google Sheets.
