Paginator for specific category pages

Hey folks - long-time reader, first-time poster!

I have a question on how to setup paginators for specific category pages or if that’s possible.

An example use case here would be having a page that has a paginator (12-page limit) with the data being any pages that have the category “press”.

Right now, I just render all the pages but this solution definitely doesn’t scale very well, especially since I have an image shown for each page I render.

You can see this page for an example of how my current implementation looks like or you can check the code snippet below.

<!-- all pages with 'press' category -->
{{ $press := ($.Site.Taxonomies.categories.press).Pages }}
<!-- columns -->
<div class="columns">
  <!-- show card for each page -->
  {{ range $press }}
  <div class="column">
    {{ partial "card.html" . }}
  </div>
  {{ end }}
</div>

I have been able to set up paginators for section templates.

You can see this page for an example that has a paginator from the same website or the code snippet below.

{{ define "main" }}
<!-- Hero -->
{{ partial "hero.html" . }}
<!-- Page -->
<div class="section">
    <div class="content">
      <!-- Content -->
      {{ partial "content.html" . }}
      <!-- Children -->
      {{ partial "children.html" . }}
    </div>
    <!-- Pagination -->
    <div class="mt-2">
      {{ partial "paginator.html" . }}
    </div>
</div>
{{ end }}

But again it’s still unclear to me how exactly I would create that same functionality for the use case described from earlier where the data is pages with a specific category.
