-When you are looking for migrating code from v4 to v5 the [Migration Guide provided by MUI](https://mui.com/material-ui/migration/migration-v4/) might be a helpful resource. It is worth mentioning that we are still using `@mui/styles` & thereby `jss`. You might stumble accross the migration to `emotion` for `makeStyles` or `withStyles`. It is not required to move to `emotion` yet.

-1. Run the migration `codemod` for the path of the specific plug: `npx @mui/codemod v5.0.0/preset-safe `
-2. Manual fix imports to align with linting rules & take a look at potential `TODO:` items the `codemod` could not fix.
-3. Remove types & methods from `@backstage/theme`, which are marked as `@deprecated`
