How to show categories in grid layout in a page

Hi,
I would like to list my categories as Grid layout in a page like the one in this website https://www.security.org/
Can you please let me know how to do it ?
Hi there,
Are you referring to this section here?

If so you can build that manually with the help of GenerateBlocks:

Yes Leo, That section only (categories) shown as images in grid layout
Yup then you can build that manually with GenerateBlocks.

With all these EXCITING changes and expansions to GP/GB, I find myself a little lost on what is now capable.
How close are we to being able to display a dynamic grid of categories?

I'm doing this manually now with GB - which is fine, just not optimal.
Should I be experimenting with the GB beta, WP Query loops, or WP Show Posts?
- I know adding Featured Images to categories is outside GP/GB (searching for a plugin that is being maintained).
- Can a GB Headline or Dynamic Content pull a Custom Fields added to a Category?
My apologies for getting lost :)
Any general guidance would be very appreciated.

Yes.
But I don't think the dynamic categories list can be done by GB/GP out of box yet Unfortuanly.
Thanks Ying!! Have a great week!
You are welcome :)
