The ability to edit a channel's description is not yet implemented for the initial launch of the Flutter mobile app, so we remove the legacy React Native app instructions. This feature is tracked in: https://github.com/zulip/zulip-flutter/issues/1102 Part of #34748.

Change a channel's description
Channel descriptions can be used to explain the purpose of a channel, and link to usage guidelines, resources, or related channels. They appear in the navigation bar at the top of the web and desktop apps when you view the channel. You can hover over long channel descriptions with the mouse to view them in full.
Channel descriptions support Zulip's standard Markdown
formatting, with the exception that image previews are
disabled. Use Markdown formatting to include a link to a website, Zulip
message, or topic in the channel description:
[link text](URL).
