From where to start ?

I’ve been around digital marketing for a while mai ku managing social media accounts on platforms amd never tracking any result with google a alit is or other specific tool. There results I was receiving were good enough for me but now I would like to do the step and learn how to create a website, I found out there are many solutions for this but I think that Wordpress is the most flexible.

So I started creating a website using the theme twenty twenty four but that theme I really counter intuitive and everything is super hard to get done.

I went back and found there are other theme that can Be easily personalised that are more intuitive to take my first steps.

Now my question is, is it possible to create a website on Wordpress without using any theme ? Just creating pages on Gutenberg and customising them? If not which are the best theme to start with for a beginner like me ?
