how to change the font size of all text box within a grid, windows app uwp

Question

I know how to develop webpages with HTML and CSS, but I am new to the windows app development and I am trying to develop an universal windows platform (UWP) application.

Lets say I have grid,

 <Grid Name="Grid1">
    <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
            <VisualStateGroup>
                <VisualState x:Name="Normal">
                    <VisualState.StateTriggers>
                        <AdaptiveTrigger MinWindowWidth="600" />
                </VisualState.StateTriggers> 
                <VisualState.Setters>
                    <Setter Target="text1.FontSize" Value="12" />
                    <Setter Target="text2.FontSize" Value="12" />
                    <Setter Target="text3.FontSize" Value="10" />                        
                </VisualState.Setters>
                </VisualState>
            </VisualStateGroup>
        </VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
     <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition></RowDefinition>
     </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <TextBlock Name="text1" FontSize="22" Text="hello text">    </TextBlock>
    <TextBlock Name="text2" FontSize="22" Text="hello text1">    </TextBlock>
    <TextBlock Name="text3" FontSize="22" Text="hello text2">    </TextBlock>
</Grid>

Is it is possible to change the font size of all text box with single VisualState.Setters like how we do in with CSS class in HTML ?, because I have to change many text box font size based on window width.

Sorry if if the question is too silly and absurd. Thanks in advance.

You can use styles to apply same values for all controls. Consider next example:

<Grid>
    <Grid.Resources>
        <Style TargetType="TextBlock">
            <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="22"/>
        </Style>
    </Grid.Resources>

    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition/>
        <RowDefinition/>
        <RowDefinition/>
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <TextBlock Grid.Row="0" Text="hello text" />
    <TextBlock Grid.Row="1" Text="hello text1" />
    <TextBlock Grid.Row="2" Text="hello text2" />
</Grid>

Edited

You can set a named style in a Setter of VisualState:

<Grid Name="Grid1">
    <Grid.Resources>
        <Style x:Key="TextBlockStyle" TargetType="TextBlock">
            <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="22"/>
        </Style>
    </Grid.Resources>
    <VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
        <VisualStateGroup>
            <VisualState x:Name="Normal">
                ...
                <VisualState.Setters>
                    <Setter Target="text1.Style" Value="{StaticResource TextBlockStyle}" />
                    ...
                </VisualState.Setters>
            </VisualState>
        </VisualStateGroup>
    </VisualStateManager.VisualStateGroups>
    ...
</Grid>
