Introduction
Outside of project type, scaling still means the same thing. With a website you scale everything and on a window it's simple to scale horizontally with minimums thanks to XAML.
Markup is the common aspect between a website and a WPF program. Scaling is not exactly the same across the board but it is the commonality in technology that this page attempts to harness. I haven't tried to scale a WPF window the same way I do in HTML, I will give it a try sometime and update this page in good time.
Frontend scaling
It's very simple to scale everything, you set in a vw body font-size and then @media body font size at whatever width you like for max. After that use em for measurement and the rest will fall into line.
