I have seen good programs in HLL made by people who read only the peripheral parts of the datasheets. And I have done so myself for other chips. For most peripherals it is just reading and writing certain addresses. That can be done any suitable HLL without asm knowledge. Don't get me wrong, I don't say asm knowledge hurts, I just day that it is not required.
