With some carefully selected appliances you would probably be fine. This stuff used to be super pricey, but now even the cheaper brands are putting out inverter drive ACs for example. Not window units, but mini splits and home systems

If you are a prepper, with your existing lifestyle and think a genset will give you tide-over-until-the-zombies-die, I think you need to think harder: a genny won't work, if you don't pre-design the load for it. Lots of things you own right now probably won't be very happy with unstable volts, and lots of things you own right now will suck hard on the generator, making it surge.
So yes. you can design for it. But a typical home solar setup (which is what the article was about) is not going to just work, offline, with your generator. It takes more work.
