Description

See: React Native Button.js

/**
   * TV next focus down (see documentation for the View component).
   *
   * @platform android
   */
  nextFocusDown?: ?number,

gets captured as:

"nextFocusDown": {
        "required": false,
        "flowType": {
          "name": "number",
          "nullable": true
        },
        "description": "TV next focus down (see documentation for the View component).\n\n@platform android"

Research direction

Start by reproducing extraction from the React Native Button.js example, then trace how the Flow docblock is parsed. Done means the @platform android annotation is no longer included in the property's description and the extracted result matches the intended metadata behavior.
