Summary
The max-zoom CSS descriptor sets the maximum zoom factor of a document defined by @viewport. The browser will not zoom in any further than this, whether automatically or at the user's request.
A zoom factor of 1.0 or 100% corresponds to no zooming. Larger values zoom in. Smaller values zoom out.
