Is there a possible way to parse a string with breaklines to an object using JSON.parse?

const text = '{ "name": "Anne", "desc": "Hi,\nThis is me" }';
const obj = JSON.parse(text);
console.log(obj);

There are two things here:

"Hi,\\nThis is me"

For your code specifically, you also have another syntax error with a ,, instead of a ::

    const text = '{ "name": "Anne", "desc": "Hi,\\nThis is me" }';
    const obj = JSON.parse(text);
    console.log(obj);

output:

{
name: "Anne" ,
desc: "Hi, This is me"
}
