Elementor widgets
These widgets appear only in the Elementor panel and are only needed by people who work in it. The theme is complete without Elementor. See How Verba uses Elementor for where that boundary runs.
The point that matters for trust: moving from the block editor to Elementor takes nothing away. What you placed as a block exists here as a widget, and the other way around. The complex elements are declared once and handed to both editors, so their settings are identical.
The post listing shows it best: one schema feeds the widget, the block, Theme Options, and the fields on an object. See Post listings.
#The widgets
Name plus one line. The settings are visible in the panel, and a copy of them here would age faster than the widget.

#Widgets that depend on an integration
Their absence from the panel is not a bug: the live Algolia selection widget, the Mailchimp form, and the Contact Form 7 form.
The rule in one line: without its integration installed, that widget does not appear in the Elementor list. See Installing integrations.
#What is not on this page
The settings of each widget. The complex ones have their own pages, and this page links to them rather than copying them.
How to use Elementor itself. That is Elementor documentation.
