What does the br element do in HTML?
The br element is used to insert a line break or return to a parent element, such as a paragraph, without leaving the parent container.
Do not abuse the line break
The b element creates a line break. It’s easy to overuse this tag to create a style that carries text to the next line without indentation, unlike using the p and ul paragraph tags and lists. As a general rule, the br element should only be used if the line break is itself an integral part of the content.
Often the element is used to represent text as a list:

Verse 1
<p>First line<br>
Second line<br>
Third line<br>
Fourth line</p>
Verse 2
<p>1st line<br>
2nd line<br>
3rd line<br>
4th line</p>

If you find yourself using br to separate blocks of text, you may need to consider using paragraph p tags or another element. If you use br to create more space between elements, you should use CSS margin.
