I would recommend you to study the datasheet. LIS2DH12 is quite simple device and you should be able to setup it very quickly using only the register description in the datasheet. You can also check application notes AN3308 for LIS3DH, it is similar device to LIS2DH12.

For more general information I would recommend to start with ST Nucleo board and X-NUCLEO-IKS01A1(2) expansion board.

In the related SW package called X-CUBE-MEMS1 you can find several examples how to configure different sensor, even if the LIS2DH12 is not yet supported by this package the approach is the same.

Best regards
