It’s 99% new and different from the MCU. The 1% are small nods to the MCU.
For example in both Peter is out and finds a broken DVD player, then he brings it home and tells May how excited he is that someone threw away a perfectly functioning (obviously broken) DVD player. All the while missing that his future mentor is on the couch, talking to May.
Or as the series progresses we learn that certain events that occured in the MCU also exist in this world.
Overall however it is a completely new Spider-Man. (Yes, Spider-Man interacts with well know Spider-Man characters, but not following any previously written story.)
