Document max line length (a11y)
Description
The type fundamentals is missing the crutial max line length definition.
I'd propose to go with the 80 chars from the WCAG 2.0, SC 1.4.8 specs. An easy way to implement this – and to make sure it keeps working with scaling – is to use the following: max-width: 80ch;
Can I use 'ch', thanks @danmh .
