Hii,
I always use my theme as Astra and then I downloaded Starter Template plugin and then select a template and then customize it.
Are there any better free theme or free templates that work with Elementor ?

I use Blocksy. Seems better than Astra.
I have been using blocksy for all my projects. It has a lot of options which are available in the Free version itself. Moreover, the additional plugin – Blocksy companion helps you get a few more features, like Cookie notice, Author Box, Additional Widgets, Sticky Header etc.
I like Astra for certain projects and Kadence for others.
I vote for Kadence.
Somehow Hello+Elementor is accepted as “golden standard”, as well as Astra+Elementor.
Kadence, Blocksy and GeneratePress with their Blocks or/and GreenShift give you almost pagebuilder environment, but with cleaner interface and cleaner generated HTML, without Elementor’s bloat.
You will not regret using any of them, if you can avoid Elementor.
I use Nexter as its comes with Free Theme Builder for Elementor
I like OceanWP
You can take a look at Kadence.
Blocksy has way more options given to you for free than Astra. Love Blocksy when I don’t need a full builder like Bricks.
You should give a try to Qi theme (100 templates in free version). Working with Elementor.
Astra and Starter Templates are a great combo. However, for a similar experience, you might want to try the “Hello Elementor” theme, which is specifically designed to work seamlessly with Elementor.
Best is subjective.
