depends if you want to hide it from the regular audience or from dev's as well.
Although both can be done but hiding it from developers is not easy but doable
there's no easy way to do this.
but there's always a way.
if you can create your own html front page, you can separate the WordPress site and the one you share for public.
retrieve the posts from your WordPress site using wp-json. and then display those posts to your site frontpage using JavaScript.
but you will ended up having two separate website.

There are many plugins which enable you to do so. Search on google and wordpress repositories for custom branding or white labeling and you shall find many. Use the one which suits your most.
The best one would be https://premium.wpmudev.org/project/ultimate-branding/ but its good only if you have wpmu membership otherwise cheap or free alternatives are available everywhere.

What he means is, that you have two applications:
a) Your Wordpress App
b) Your HTML/CSS frontend
Both of them are seperated and the visitor is only accessing your frontend-app however the frontend app can communicate with your wordpress-app like a API.
This can be done but it require definetly a lot of knowledge in web-application development/engineering. So its not what everyone (even experienced web-developers) can do.
In general: You can put the "powered by wordpress" string in the footer away but you still have a lot of references in the source-code, the wp-folder structure, wp-admin etc.
So no, there is no "simple" or "easy" way to remove ANY references that you are using wordpress, except if you seperate WP from your HTML away.
yes this is what i mean. hiding the WordPress from visitors and possibly developer.
Indeed it is not easy because we will ended up developing the frontend entirely from scratch.
the idea is to use wp as content poster only. not using them to display the website itself. and of course the drawback of being unable to benefit from any WordPress plugin that is intended for front end side.
I don't know if i can give you link to the tutorial because i discovered this method myself because someone challenged me a few years ago.
maybe you should search the "wp-api v2" docs to start with.

the solution is based on the data u wanted to pull:
If your data is not updated frequently. check out static page generator like gatsbyjs and pull ur data from wordpress using api.
If your data is changes frequently (live data), need to write your own script and pull each time from wordpress api.
other than wordpress, check out contenful or strapi (open source) for easier api cms.
