    Use has_category()

    if(has_category('certain-category', get_the_ID())):
    // Do something
endif;

    WordPress now has a native block which does this for you if you want the easy route the block is called Post and Page Grid it allows you to select what category of posts or pages it will show and you can select what information is shown e.g. Title, thumbnail, excerpt etc
