Hello people.
First of all... I haven't worked with screen displays before, sorry if this post sounds dumb:
Now that I said the above:
I want to interact with any ST board GPIO through GUI buttons. I also want to do this on a "big" touch screen with great quality and not the 2-3" LCD screens that usually come with the boards.
1. Where can I find 10" LCD screens with great quality for this purpose?
2. Which IDE will be better to draw the GUI? I have seen many, some are free and some are not (I use CubeIDE for everything not related to screens).
3. How can I communicate the GUI buttons with any ST board? Is it by I2C? Or I should instead use the GPIO of the board that runs the screen?
I hope I made myself clear enough to get pointed to the right direction.
Thanks for your time.
Solved! Go to Solution.

MikroE and GHI Electronics might be worth a look too.
Riverdi seems a reasonable mix, without trying to kitchen-sink the problem. Very difficult, nigh impossible, to make a perfect board for every customer, they always want that one other thing..
I'd look for a board that hits 85% of the desired function at a suitable price point, vs DIY, and then using and interface to a custom daughter board to cover the other 15%. Determine your trade-offs vs costs, etc.
