In QGIS 2.18 there was plugin "Copy layers and groups to clipboard". It was allowing just in two clicks to copy/paste layer(s) with style and etc. from one project to another.
Is there something similar in QGIS 3.0?

This functionality has been added out-of-the-box for QGIS 3.2. You can now right click a layer or group and select "Copy Layer" (or "Copy Group"), and then right click in the legend of another QGIS window and select Paste Layer/Group:
You can drag and drop layers or groups between QGIS windows.
Note, this may not work reliably. As commented by QGIS developer ndawson - "it often results in a kind of "corrupted" layer, which has no features and can't be styled". Though I personally have not come across this issue.
