Technically just use some wire.  It works fine.    But the Mesa FPGA boards
allow for much faster stepping.
Watch out that the Pi is a 3.3 volt machine.   Do NOT place 5 volts on it's
IO pins.

The linuxcnc does not interface to a motor it interfaces to a motor
driver.  The drivers all take "step" and "direction" inputs so any motor
your stepper driver can drive works

Do you really want to try ad use an X11 application on a touch screen.
Get a mouse or trackpad. and buy a "real" monitor that is big enough to see.

You mean to build up a full CNC system.   Yes.  My rules is do NOT try and
build everything at once.   Build up only the smallest amount and then TEST
it before building the next part.   Even little things like a power
supply.  Testthat under a dummy load, look for noise and heat, then connect
it and check volts and so on again.

Same for steppers and timing belts.  Don't use anything as complex as
LinuxCNC to test a motor.  Build/Make or buy a very simple pulse generator
for motor testing.    An Arduino comes in real handy because you can use it
to verify motors and sensors with very simple sketches.

Figure some way to test each sub-system in isolation and do that before you
integrate it into the next larger sib-system

This is a hard problem.  You will need to design and build it. The simplest
is an LED and a human with a wrench to watch it.

Tormach has a system based on a power drawbar and tool tray.
