Categories in the "Posts" widget on a wordpress blog?

Question

WordPress

The situation is as follows. There are two categories - beauty and recipes. How to implement, for example, if I read the "recipes" category, then only posts from the "recipes" category should be shown at the bottom of the post in the "Posts" widget. And vice versa, if I read a post from the beauty category, then posts from the "beauty" category were shown below in the "Posts" widget. That is, we set the theme, for example, (single post where we specify in the "Posts" widget to show posts of a certain category. But how to set it up so that at the bottom of a certain post, a certain category, posts from the same category are shown?

If you want to implement it yourself using code, then there is such a guide, for example: https://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/creating-a-lis...
