[Build from source] React Native 0.81.4 Cannot build from source when following the doc

Description

Following this doc to build from source for React Native. But cannot run yarn android. I think I missed something from the docs?
package.json:

{
  "name": "AwesomeProject",
  "version": "0.0.1",
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "android": "react-native run-android",

settings.gradle

pluginManagement { includeBuild("../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin") }
plugins { id("com.facebook.react.settings") }
extensions.configure(com.facebook.react.ReactSettingsExtension){ ex -> ex.autolinkLibrariesFromCommand() }
rootProject.name = 'AwesomeProject'
include ':app'
includeBuild('../node_modules/@react-native/gradle-plugin')
includeBuild('../node_modules/react-native') {
  dependencySubstitution {
    substitute(module("com.facebook.react:react-android")).using(project(":packages:react-native:ReactAndroid"))
    substitute(module("com.facebook.react:react-native")).using(project(":packages:react-native:ReactAndroid"))
    substitute(module("com.facebook.react:hermes-android")).using(project(":packages:react-native:ReactAndroid:hermes-engine"))
    substitute(module("com.facebook.react:hermes-engine")).using(project(":packages:react-native:ReactAndroid:hermes-engine"))
  }
}

No response

Beginnen Sie mit der Dokumentation zum Erstellen von React Native aus dem Quellcode und dem obligatorischen Reproduktionsfall. Vergleichen Sie anschließend dessen package.json und settings.gradle mit dem gemeldeten Fehler bei yarn android. Verfolgen Sie, warum der Befehl react-native nicht verfügbar ist, und überprüfen Sie die dokumentierte Einrichtung anhand der bereitgestellten Umgebung. Als erledigt gilt die Aufgabe, wenn ein neues Projekt, das der Dokumentation folgt, yarn android erfolgreich aus dem Source-Checkout ausführen kann.
