How do I remove new lines and extra spaces in Javascript with and WITHOUT regex?

JavaScript

How can I remove new lines along with extra spaces.

For example the following text:
"This is a bio with an extra space. And an extra line

between the lines"

would become:
“This is a bio with an extra space. And an extra line between the lines”

Is there a way to do this WITHOUT regex?

Just curious, why would you not want to use regex?

There are escape sequences in js and regex

You can see a list here: https://regex101.com

The function replace is regex enabled
Then you also need the global modifier:
text.replace(/\n/g, '')
