Have them done by someone so theyre one seamless piece IMO.
10 foot pieces with seams looks worse and more potential for leaks in the future.
Well then there you go. theyre not hard, just put a slight slope to them towards the downspouts. Make sure the fascia is solid to hold the mounting hardware and youll be good.
If you have a bunch of trees and shit in the area I would put a gutter guard on them too so youre not cleaning them twice a year. I used these from Home Depot and they work great:

Chiming in to 100% go with seamless. Gutters aren’t expensive, you’re not going to save much money.
pay someone else to do it too. it was like $400 to do my whole house with new gutters and that is with taking the old ones which you dont have to even worry about.
let someone else do the hard work
gutters are cheap in the grand scheme of house repairs

From my pal that's local
"good luck finding someone, I've been trying to get gutters on my house and shop for a couple years, dozen calls, only ONE company even showed up to give an estimate, style craft, 268' of gutters was $4400. seemed excessive but I have no one to compare it too since no one else can bother to even return a call or show up for an estimate."

I'm doing them myself. $500 in material and an afternoon with my dad this spring or summer.
Gabled roof makes life simple. One long 64' length on the back, and a 64' front length split into two runs because of the cross gable over the front door. 8' entry way since it's an angled roof.
That's where I'm at with it currently.
I hate having people do work.
At least if I do it myself I have myself to blame only.
