How to enable I2C - STM32F411

how to activate I2C
Good morning
I'm trying to make a project that requires the I2C1 bus work
if I load the compiled project on arduino
from debug the application crashes because it can't read the EEPROM on RTC
I've read various documents but I can't understand how to activate the bus on the STMF411 processor
I'm quite new to STM
with esp32 there are no problems
here it seems more complicated to me

Yes, programming hardware frequently more complicated than presented by Arduino where someone else has worked out the drivers and libraries

The 7-bit Slave Address on STM32 is the High Order 7-bits, not the Low Order. So frequently (SlaveAddr << 1) in translation/conversion.

Look at the documentation for the IC you are connecting, usually sets forth the expectations.
