Upgrading Astro to v5

For this personal blog, I am using Astro for quite some time. So far it has proven to be the perfect tool for this. And there is continuous development with new versions on a regular schedule. Although this is a good sign, it requires regular updating to not fall behind and use the latest features.

The latest major update is Version 5 with some breaking changes to content collections, which I use for blog posts and theater plays. Think of a database over Markdown files, including a schema which is enforced. The update process to v5 is well-documented und not too much effort. But some changes needed to be implemented and tested.
