If you’re using vw
or other viewport units for element sizing, always bear in mind that viewport-unit sized elements are not user-zoomable. You can try on your own with this demo. An alternative could be to use calc(1em + 0.25vw)
or similar calculations that don’t entirely depend on viewport units and therefore are scalable.
