How to create a new KMM project with iosApp in Storybord + UIKit

Currently the default iosApp created with template is one with SwiftUI. And I am not seeing any option to switch SwiftUI to UIKit Storyboard while creating a KMM project using Android Studio

You can create a new project directly in Xcode and replace the app created by Android Studio. Just keep the Podfile from the app generated by Android Studio, replace everything else with the app generated by Xcode. Run a gradle sync in Android Studio to execute `pod install` and create the project's workspace and attach your shared library pod.

I wrote some nice extensions for using Storyboards from kotlin. It's a passable experience, but I'd rather work with SwiftUI given the choice (there's too much code to refactor the project I do this on right now). I wrote a loadViewFromStoryboard(name: String) method that instantiates a VC with the storyboard and returns the view. Identifying views was odd at first, but I use restorationId and wrote a findViewById that works like on Android.
