@spao why not use the built in method of pagination? https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/eloquent-resources#pagination
in your controller
public function category(Category $category) {
$articles = $category->articles()->paginate(3);
return view('articles.category', compact('category', 'articles'));
}
in your blade:
@foreach($articles as $article)
// html
@endforeach
and add the following for your pagination links:
{!! $articles->links() !!}

@spao if you want to customize pagination, why not setup a length aware paginator:
https://laravel.com/api/8.x/Illuminate/Pagination/LengthAwarePaginator.html
Just suggestion:
Edit
Or at least view this free video here on laracasts:
