Blank Lines To add a single extra line after a paragraph, add two extra spaces at the end of the text. To add an extra line of space between paragraphs, add the HTML code, followed by two extra spaces (e.g.  .. , replacing the periods with spaces).
Paragraphs in Markdown are defined by two consecutive newlines (i.e. there must be a blank line in between the paragraphs). The "two spaces" syntax is for line breaks, i.e. <br> tags.
A paragraph is consecutive lines of text with one or more blank lines between them. For a line break, add either a backslash \ or two blank spaces at the end of the line. paragraph.
To add a line break to your HTML code, you use the <br> tag. The <br> tag does not have an end tag. You can also add additional lines between paragraphs by using the <br> tags. Each <br> tag you enter creates another blank line.
If your Markdown compiler supports HTML, you can add <br/><br/> in the Markdown source.
I test on a lot of Markdown implementations. The non-breaking space ASCII character (followed by a blank line) would give a blank line. Repeating this pair would do the job. So far I haven't failed any.
For example:
Hello
world!
I only know the options below. It would be great to take a list of all of them and comment them differences

In Markdown flavours that support equation output, the following should work on a line by itself, with empty lines before and after (repeat for more lines):
$~$
It is basically an equation containing nothing but a single equation-white-space. The benefit is that in Markdown flavours that include both PDF and HTML output options (including Rmarkdown), it should be understood in the same way for both output types, whereas I'm not sure how PDF output would interpret <br> or
Basically, if the library you are using is CommonMark-compliant, you can add multiple hard line breaks (<br />) easily. Here's a quotation from CommonMark's latest specifications (0.28):
A line break (not in a code span or HTML tag) that is preceded by two or more spaces and does not occur at the end of a block is parsed as a hard line break (rendered in HTML as a
tag)
and then...
For a more visible alternative, a backslash before the line ending may be used instead of two spaces
The specification is quite clear. However, the library I have been using MarkDig, doesn't quite work with the two spaces technique (must be a bug), but it works flawlessly with a backlash.
That said, this input...
Line one\
\
\
\
Line two
will produce four hard line breaks after "Line one". You can see it here (using backlash)...

Notice how all CommonMark-compliant implementations will get it right.
Backtick quotes with a space inside and two spaces to follow. Repeat as needed for more lines:
text1 text1
`(space)`(space)(space)
`(space)`(space)(space)
text2 text2
It looks decent in Markdown source:
text1 text1
` `
` `
text2 text2
