The best launch will be when there is a little wheelspin. This keeps the engine spinning while you accelerate.
You can either dump the clutch (bad for diff and various other components of the drivetrain) or slip the clutch (bad for clutch).
I launch by slipping the clutch. I've found that I have more control over the launch using that method, plus I can build boost more smoothly.
For an auto, just stall it up (step on both accelerator and brake) to the point that the wheels are about to spin, then just let go of the brake when the light turns green.
