We’ve updated the Kotlin Multiplatform Web-wizard a bit:
• simplified source sets hierarchy when it’s possible
• updated Kotlin/Gradle/Deps versions
• simplified libraries selection UI
• cleaning source code and added some cases to unit tests

What about using the plugin block instead of the old classpath variant to apply Kotlin/android plugins?

[Joffrey]

Also it'd be nice to sort the dependencies, here it depends on which order we toggle them on or off

[gildor]

I would also probably migrate on Version Catalog, it would really make version handling a lot easier, concidering that project has multiple blocks for dependencies and moving all dependnecies declarations and version to a single file would help a lot

awesome ideas! could you make issues in Github project?
if you’d like to do it PRs are welcome)

Speaking as someone who hasn't created a new Kotlin project in a while, I'm wondering why would I use this instead of the New Project wizard in IDEA?

[Konstantin Tskhovrebov]

1. someone might don’t have IDEA during first time of researching Kotlin ecosystem
2. the web wizard has useful (i hope) preview which can help in existing project

[Chris Miller]

OK thanks, that makes sense. Especially #2 for someone like me, given I find IDEA's wizard always seems to take a few attempts to get the result I want on the rare occasion I need to use it. I use it maybe once or twice a year, and each time everything seems to have changed 😄
