Beta/Dev/Canary channels are not going anywhere, they will stay and will be used by Microsoft to continue the development of the Edge browser. just like Google uses Beta/Dev/Canary channels to develop their Chrome browser.

Also about how you get the stable version of Edge on Windows:

Microsoft will be pushing out the new Edge via Windows Update to the majority of Windows 10 users

RS4 (Redstone 4) - released April 2018 - Build 17134.1
