The Debian wiki has a dedicated page on this topic.
But in general, Linux is designed so that hardware drivers are part of the kernel and usually do not require separate installation, as in Windows. Major distributions like Debian include as many modules with drivers as possible by default to ensure that it works on as many configurations as possible. That is, with a probability of 99%, it will work right out of the box. As Nazar Mokrinsky wrote , run LiveUSB and you will know for sure.

Usually, you don’t even need to install video card drivers, unless you play games and the video card is not Intel.
And so it doesn’t work - then install it, most often the kernel has all the necessary drivers initially.
