Description

I wanted to try this out but everything was quite a bit smaller than is comfortable for me in my current setup. It'd be great to have a single font size control that could scale everything up or down.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the current font size settings in the UI and implement a scaling mechanism that adjusts all font sizes proportionally. Look for existing theme or style variables that can be modified.
