Best Method / Block for Blog Posting

[ad_1]

I’m new to WordPress and have a super basic question. I want to have my last ~10 posts show up on my Home page in a pre-defined and consistent layout/format and refresh with the most recent posts automatically every time a new post is created.

I want the latest post to be displayed at the very top of the page more prominently than the others, and the other ~9 be uniformly displayed beneath the latest post (feature image, title, date, category, etc all shown the same way).

What’s the best method for this? Would it be to have Latest Post block on top with just 1 latest post and then another under that that displays the next 9? How would I exclude the most recent to only show 2-10 in the second block?

Would the Query Loop block be the better option?

I’m using the Astra theme and Spectra plug-in. Thank you!
