Better Gui Scales
by rorykl
Better Gui Scales lets players set a separate GUI scale for each menu, such as the hotbar, crosshair, inventory and small HUD elements.
What it does
Players can choose different interface sizes for different screens instead of one global GUI scale. A small scale can keep the hotbar and crosshair unobtrusive during normal play, while the inventory opens at a larger size. The scale changes instantly when a player switches screens, for example from a scale of 2 in the world to a scale of 4 in the inventory. Fabric API is required. The mod is client-side only, so servers do not need it, and it is published for Fabric on 1.21.11 with version 1.1.0, under All rights reserved and not open source.
Key features
Per-menu GUI scales
Each interface element can use its own scale, so the hotbar, crosshair and other HUD parts can stay small.
Large inventory scale
The inventory and other menus can open at a bigger size than the in-game HUD without changing the global setting.
Instant scale switching
The interface resizes as soon as a player opens or closes a screen, with no restart needed.

What the author says
This is a very simple mod that allows you to have different gui scales based on the ui you are in, for example, when you are playing normally your hotbar could appear as gui scale 2 but once going into your inventory it switches instantly to gui scale 4
