In Gatsby Markdown We need to add Standalone link WITHOUT un underline here because the visual is against our doc

[alisonjoseph]

Just wanted to clarify that you're asking for an option to display a link in markdown without an underline? Or are you asking to update ALL links to not have an underline?

There isn't a way to pass options to markdown, so there won't be an easy way to do both with plain markdown.

In our guidance, Standalone links don't accompany with an underline. Visually, people were confused if this was contradicting. So I was wondering if this could be fixed for the Standalone link here. I noticed we only have one type of link with underline even though some links could be standalone without underlines.

@thyhmdo if someone wanted to they would need to use the Carbon component directly (which is doable, and we could provide an example), there isn't a way to pass an option in markdown though, we can only pick one way for a markdown link to display.
