For the analog layout, do you want to use magic or KLayout?

gf180mcu has PCells for both. However, the KLayout PCells require a more complex setup due to the use of GDSFactory.

I will prefer magic as have worked on it earlier for few designs but open for klayout also.

What about schematic, simulation, lvs steps? Is it similar to as for sky130?

Using xschem, ngspice , netgen

Yes, it's pretty much the same. I would recommend installing the latest PDK via ciel (https://github.com/fossi-foundation/ciel) and taking a look at the tool-specific setup in gf180mcuD/libs.tech/*.

You can then ask any specific questions here.
