Hello. This is my first week with MCU's. I choose STM and want to stick with it. But it makes only pain :) So I was able to make some GPIO to work but have a complete disaster with LCD. The board came with some demo firm, and it was erased. So I am dealing with a complete new firmware. My helper is a chat GPT but he cant fix my Purple screen. I want to print some basic text like "Hello" and have no luck. Adding code here. Please advise that else I can share so there will be a clear mistake I made. Thank you.
