Let's say I want to have a somewhat genereric CRUD-app: A database, some application logic, a login system, logging/telemetry and a UI.

What kind of stack should I use so that tools like Darwin (or just plain old copilot) can be most effective?

Most effective in what way? Are you looking to generate an app from scratch or have AIs work on an existing project?

From scratch

While Darwin can generate code for you, I think generating new projects from scratch is already being done by a lot of the major frameworks. Check out the native docs/tooling around the kind of stack you'd like to build!

My general answer: any tool that has a large online community. I’m not the dev, but any LLM-backed responses will naturally depend on that LLM’s familiarity with the tech. With that in mind, RubyOnRails and create-react-app (+ some node backend) seem like the natural winners.
