Connecting a 3.2'' TFT display to the Arduino Uno

Hi, I have a question because I got a display as a gift (unknown condition) to play with, but I have a problem with starting it. I found out that the important component is a chip on his motherboard called a driver.

The display looks like this:



I've read a bit about the fact that it's not that easy to connect due to the communication of the display (supposedly the 3.3V standard, but I don't know how it is in this case, I've seen people use resistors in other projects). Besides, I don't know what's going on with SPI, does the topic also apply to me? I've seen them use ready-made shields, unfortunately I can't see anything under the eye.

The first problem is that I don't know how to connect it to the arduino. Will resistors actually be required? Can I connect 5V to VCC? There are a lot of pins to connect, are they all required? At the beginning, I would like to at least display the text, because as I understand the display allows you to read from the sd card and support touch.

Is it possible to communicate with the display using fewer wires, as is the case with an LCD with an I2C converter?

I would like to ask someone with experience to draw a picture of how to fasten it. The worst thing is that I'm not sure if it works.
What remains is the topic of which libraries to use to handle this?

While looking for information on this topic, I came across this page:

I didn't get much out of it, but the display looks very similar, the pinout is the same, which is rare from what I see on other similar displays.

Yes, it is possible with fewer connections. I personally prefer and use displays with SPI interface.

For that screen, the best thing is an arduino MEGA and a shield like this:

Or an arduino Due with a shield like this:

You won't be able to use the wiring to connect that 40-pin display to the arduino UNO.
