I see many people still using third party page builders such as Elementor or WP Bakery for new websites. Those tools were useful in the past, when WordPress didn’t have any integrated full site editor.
But nowadays, thanks to the improved “Gutenberg” editor (i.e. the new full site editing experience), managing your WordPress website is easy and it doesn’t require many third party plugins.
The latest WordPress version even lets you import fonts from Google, without any third party plugin! It’s truly a great experience, IMO.
Also, if you use a third party page builder, you’ll be “vendor locked” and you’ll need to keep using that unless you want to re-write your website from scratch.
If you need plugins, *prefer plugins that use the block editor*. Many new recent ones do! Then you can easily insert them in your pages, without using shortcodes.
tl;dr: do yourself a favour and don’t install page builders. Just use the WordPress native experience.
