Have reused some logic as suggested by @gziolo from @ajitbohra's closed WIP PR.

Thanks for the PR. You also have to add this feature to the PHP file, otherwise the image will not be rendered on the frontend.

Sure, this will be the next focus, now this PR is still a WIP.

Hey @paaljoachim
It's ready for review now.
Thanks for chiming in 👍

Hey, have y'all also seen #17151?

I noticed that Riad checked out the other Latest Post Block: featured image feature. So I believe what is important here is just comparing both and figuring out where to take it from there.

I was able to test this briefly, but after making a couple settings changes in the block's settings like number of posts... I am now continually getting this error.

I delete the block and try readding it, but keep getting the same error. I've even tried on different posts, etc., but same error.

Because this appears to be stale, I've removed it from the 5.4 project board and going with #17151 instead. Because there is active work on the other one, let's close this as well.
