Is there a general programmer reference available for the STM32? For example, basic functions like Delays, Timers, GPIO, PWM, etc?

ST has Data Manuals, Reference Manuals and Programming Manuals.

The Reference Manual details HOW the the hardware works. The Programming Manual deals more with the core, and is the equivalent to the ARM TRM, and a Flash Programming Manual for certain STM32 products. Joseph Yiu has a really good series of books on the Cortex-Mx parts, which gives a more human perspective to the TRM.

For the Standard Peripheral Libraries there are usually Windows Help files in the root directory of the release.

Peripherals function in materially the same way they have for decades, if you're familiar with micro-processor design and architecture, what you know about others is the basic foundation here.

Geoff Brown's book on the STM32 if definitely worth a review.

Hi traud.jason,

Besides to the documents mentioned by Clive1, I add the user manuals that may help you to deal with Cube solution for example.

If you are using STM32F4, you find a set of user manuals related to STM32CubeF4 in
