Bike
Drag a Bike outline onto Marked to preview it as a nested Markdown list, with heading rows in bold and tasks as checkboxes. A single outline is a .bike file. Bike 2 saves a .biked package when the outline contains embedded images.
Opening a Bike outline
Marked converts the outline when you open the file:
- Rows marked as headings become bold list items.
- Tasks become GitHub-style checkboxes. A task is checked when Bike stores a completion time or marks it checked.
- Links and inline formatting in row text are kept as Markdown.
Opening a .bike file always uses this list. It does not turn the outline into a Mermaid diagram. A .biked package follows the Bike outlines setting below.
Including a Bike outline
A .bike file can also be included in another Markdown document. See Embedding Mind Maps and Outlines.
In , under Mind Maps and Outlines, Bike outlines applies to included files:
-
On (the default) — a Mermaid diagram. The file name, without
.bike, is the root node. - Off — the same nested Markdown list used when you open the file, with no document title.
Outlines with images
Bike 2 saves a .biked package when the outline contains embedded images. The package is a TextBundle: text.bike plus an assets folder. Open the .biked file itself. Marked reads the outline inside and titles the window with the package name.
Turn Bike outlines off to preview that package as the nested list, which keeps the embedded images. On turns the outline into a Mermaid diagram.
