Andreas, That's fantastic. And the codesandbox is really helpful. I started a blog post here <https://dev.to/greenwoodmap/getting-started-with-openlayers-5-e42-temp-slug-8069022?preview=79192b23835156a075d6c14f18f14047861fe75a4b971c3aa6f8cd88ac8f9ab05c069f8408508228b1e895db71c4214803e71f9adba28bec45e84d60> in which I'm trying to describe the ways that OpenLayers can be deployed. What release will the new examples be in? I should mention it in my post. And if you have any comments on what I writing let me know.
