Peter is correct as always, but let's go a little further.

The X-nucleo-53L1A1 when combined with the X-Nucleo-F401RE is called the P-nucleo-53L1A1.

And we have special code for it.

check out:

STSW-IMG008	Active	Windows Graphical User Interface (GUI) for VL53L1X Nucleo packs. Works with P-NUCLEO-53L1A1	Imaging Software	ST

This bit of code will run on your PC and graphically show what the sensor can do.

Then have a look at the API - It contains a lot of examples that can be compiled with the STM32CubeIDE code development platform.

With all that you should be on your way!!

Take a look at the P-NUCLEO-53L1A1, where exactly this combination is used and where you also find a getting started manual UM2359.

Good luck!
