Hi 

I am new to VL53L1X. Can anybody guide me as to how to get started with interfacing vl53l1x with nucleo f401re?

Peter is correct as always, but let's go a little further. 

The X-nucleo-53L1A1 when combined with the X-Nucleo-F401RE is called the P-nucleo-53L1A1.

And we have special code for it.

check out:

This bit of code will run on your PC and graphically show what the sensor can do. 

Then have a look at the API - It contains a lot of examples that can be compiled with the STM32CubeIDE code development platform. 

With all that you should be on your way!!

Take a look at the P-NUCLEO-53L1A1, where exactly this combination is used and where you also find a getting started manual UM2359.

Good luck!
