So… what are the _main modules? They aren’t mentioned on https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/multiplatform.html

This is a standard way how Gradle import works in IDEA. For each source set in a gradle project it creates an IDEA module.

I know… and I understand, for instance, that Blue-Base-Core_main is the primary common module, and Blue-Base-JVM_main is the primary JVM module. But what is Blue-Base-JVM? How is it different from Blue-Base-JVM_main?

That's a mystery for me too, why that one without suffix is created. Usually it doesn't contain source code and even has no Kotlin facet set up.

Ah. So I’ll ignore it and hope it’s a bug that future versions won’t introduce 🙂
