What Do Course Designers Need to Know About Building Accessible E-Learning? #304
I really enjoyed the design of your project, in both the light and dark mode. I didn't realize that was an accessibility function. How did you increase and decrease the size of the text when clicking the buttons?

The 'change of size' function is not super elegant tbh, the text is just an object with 3 different states and I simply change the state when the user clicks the + or - buttons. This could be also achieved using numerical variables.
The hardest part was to also change the color at the same time, to avoid managing heaps of text elements simultaneously, I had to use a little JS. The file is available if you want to have a look.
