    1. Find out what driver chip your display has
    2. Find a graphics library which supports that chip
    3. Study the documentation and examples for that library.

    As we're on the ST forum and talking about an STM32, you might try this:

    There's also Arduino:

    Many discovery boards - and other 3rd-party boards - feature LCDs; so you could study how they do that.

    Many, many people have published stuff on the interwebs - gave you tried Google ?

    eg,

    So keep searching for one which does, then!

    Did you look at

    Or Arduino?

    Or

    Or Google ?
