Remove spaces between paragraphs with regex

Question

some code here

some code here

to

some code here
some code here

What is the regex to remove the spaces between each paragraph? I've been searching for a while but I couldn't find one. Some of the results would be:

some code heresome code here

but it isn't the one i'm trying to find

What did you try so far? – Radonirina Maminiaina May 07 '18 at 07:58 — Radonirina Maminiaina, May 07 '18 at 07:58

Replace multiple \n with single \n:

var str = `some code here

some code here`;
console.log(str);
str = str.replace(/\n{2,}/g,'\n');
console.log(str);

replace 1 or more \n (newline) characters with a single newline character:

const input = `some code here

some code here


some code here
some code here




some code here`;
const output = input.replace(/\n+/g, '\n');
console.log(output);
