How can I get best seller product for each category in magento 2?

Question

I have a main category "Computer" with 3 sub categories:

• Laptop
• Storage
• Software

I know how can I get a sub category. But I need best the selling product for each category, for example:

Laptop

• Product Laptop1
• Product Laptop2 (This 2 product is best seller product for laptop category)

Storage

• Product Storage1
• Product Storage2 (This 2 product is best seller product for storage category)

Software

• Product Software1
• Product Software2 (This 2 product is best seller product for software category)

My code to get the category list for the main category is:

public function __construct(
        Template\Context $context, 
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Resolver $layerResolver, 
        \Magento\Framework\Registry $registry, 
        \Magento\Catalog\Helper\Category $categoryHelper, 
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\CategoryFactory  $categoryFactory,
        array $data = array()) 
    {
        parent::__construct($context, $layerResolver, $registry, $categoryHelper,$data);
        $this->_categoryFactory = $categoryFactory;
        $this->_collectionFactory = $collectionFactory;
     }

    public function getCategoryList()
    {
      $_category  = $this->getCurrentCategory();
      $collection = $this->_categoryFactory->create()->getCollection()->addAttributeToSelect('*')
              ->addAttributeToFilter('is_active', 1)
              ->setOrder('position', 'ASC')
              ->addIdFilter($_category->getChildren());
      return $collection;

    }

            $this->_collection = $collection;

            $this->_collection->setCurPage($this->getCurrentPage());

            $limit = (int)$this->getLimit();
