ESP32 module WIFI without tcp/ip protocol

Hello,
I am a newbie and I don't know how stupid of my question, but I want to know if I can use ESP wifi module without TCP/IP protocol. I mean I will connect ESP32 to another CPU, may be ARM CPU like STM32f7. I want all of my protocol, webserver, data will be packed at STM CPU.
As we know ESP32 provide alot of tool for ceate a webserver, access point,... and we just connect to it, use some command to use and control it.
Like: CPU --> data -> ESP32(webserver) ->> WIFI =>>>

The packed was completely done at CPU will be send to ESP32, and somehow we can access and open it by browser.
CPU(data, webserver) --> ESP32 ->> WIFI =>>>

Thank you!

There's probably some way to hack that together, but there certainly is no out-of-the-box to do this.

Edit: I stand corrected, look below.

You mean we can't do it, create all of data, information with tcp/ip,.. package then send it to ESP32.

I used to do some projects with "module ethernet". I do all job on my CPU, then interface with "module ethernet" through SPI, just send data package to it and we can have a completely Websever.
Can't we do the similar job on ESP32 wifi module. Like, first I'll set to connect ESP32 to WFI station, then write a firmware for sending the received package from STM32-CPU through Wifi?

Sorry for my English.

No, you can, I was just under the assumption that there wouldn't be any ready-made solution to do this. Seems WiFive proved me wrong on the second half by linking to a ready-made solution :)

Oh, I understand. Thank you, thank WiFive. I'll research about this link.
