Only some STM32 processors have touch sensor circuitry built in, most noticeable the STM32Lxx series.
Hardware Example
As part of another project I was using an STM32L432 MCU and while doing that design I decided to add 3 touch sensors.
The circuitry involved in the touch sensing is the C5 and the actual touch pads J2, J3 and J4 and their accompanying resistors.
Layout wise I did two different approaches:
The top and bottom touch pads are just big single sided SMD pads which is covered by soldermask. The center "hole" is a big through hole pad.
