Description of the proposal
Use rem instead of px for font-sizes throughout GitLab in order to allow users to change their browsers default size. This improves accessibility.
Reasoning:
Users can change their default font-size in their browser and by writing our font-sizes in pixels we are ignoring this ability. Here are two articles diving into this issue for those of you that are interested.
