# `HardBreakExtension`
## Summary
An extension which provides the functionality for inserting a `hardBreak` `<br />` tag into the editor.
It will automatically exit when used inside a `codeClock`. To prevent problems occurring when the codeblock is the last node in the doc, you should add the `TrailingNodeExtension` which automatically appends a paragraph node to the last node.
## Usage
### Installation
This extension is installed for you when you install the main `remirror` package.
You can use the imports in the following way:
```ts
import { HardBreakExtension } from 'remirror/extensions';
```
The extension is provided by the `@remirror/extension-hard-break` package.
