Should people be allowed to zoom into the page? #10

Should people be allowed to zoom into the page using the native zoom controls on their devices or user agents?

Zooming can be a useful tool for people in general, but may be more critical for people with moderately low vision when using apps and websites.

@anevins12 Yes, I believe zooming in is reasonable. How can I accommodate this in the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript?

anevins12 commented 3 years ago

Zooming functionality should already exist from the browser or operating system via the ctrl (windows)/ cmd (Apple) keys combined with the + key. If that's not working (I think it's not) then I assume that there must be some script disabling that on the page. Or perhaps it's a meta tag somewhere in the <head>. I haven't had the chance to look into this a second time
