Research direction

Start in client/src/pages/Dashboard.jsx, the file named in the issue, and read how the board and navbar are rendered. Add the zoom controls and connect the zoom state to the board display, keeping the limits described in the issue. Verify the board zooms in and out in 10% steps from 60% to 130%, including on a small screen.
