Can't Access Network to Get Luci - Raspberry Pi 4

I'm brand new here - and I'm not very technical. I'm attempting to configure a Raspberry Pi 4 with OpenWrt. Unfortunately, it seems there is no build with the Luci build included. I've been struggling for some time now trying to access my local network in order to install the necessary packages to launch Luci and actually make some progress. Why is this so hard? Raspberry Pi setup was a breeze. Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

21.02-rc3 should have luci installed.

it will also always answer at 192.168.1.1, if not with luci, then using ssh.
