UI/UX Glossary linking enhancement

[wackerow]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Suggested by @ryancreatescopy -- This is a continuation of #1724 with goal to improve the UI/UX of the links on the glossary page by adding styling to further differentiate between different types of links beneath definitions (internal anchor links, vs links to external pages).

Describe the solution you'd like

(pulling in the page title and meta description to populate the content)

Describe alternatives you've considered

• Leave internal anchor links with default anchor styling (colored, underlined) and 👉 emoji (as implemented in Glossary-to-docs linking [Fixed #1717] #1724)
• Leave internal anchor links with default anchor styling (colored, underlined) without emoji indicator

Additional context
May wait til other PRs get merged to avoid confusion/conflicts, but will take a look at this.

@ryancreatescopy Have a component started to address this, but I may need your help with writing the query to pull in the title and description from the document being linked to.

My thought was to have a component called something like <DocLink> with all the templating and styling. Import into the static.js and MDXProvider. In the glossary .md file, this could then be used in the form of <DocLink to="/en/developers/docs/accounts" />...

..but I'm not quite sure how to then query using that path to get the correct .md document, and parse out the title and description. Using static data I've got a working version, but would obviously prefer to make it dynamically pull in what's needed with a query for many reasons.

Lemme know what you think!

We might just have to bite the bullet & hardcode the title & description. Gatsby's GraphQL doesn't support dynamic queries (queries with variables) since it runs them on build: https://www.gatsbyjs.com/docs/static-vs-normal-queries/

(There also may be a clever way of accomplishing this that I just haven't thought of)

[wackerow]

Okay, well I guess it wasn't just me then hah... I'll parse these out today
