    End your line with 2 spaces, then Enter.
    This results in a line return instead of an ignored Return.

      Yup, either put a blank line:

      like
      
      this
      

      Or put two spaces at the end of the line (using underscores for spaces):

      like__
      this
      

      The first renders with a blank line, the second renders without (but the lines are separated). Usually you want the first.

      Example of the first:

      Hello, this is an example.
      This is the next line.

      Example of the second:

      Hello, this is an example.

      This is separate paragraph.
