If you want saving/restoring, I can only recommend persp-mode. I need to try burly again though since its conceptually simpler and would be ideal.
i'd recommend checking out perspective.el. it allows you to save and restore window configurations, which sounds like what you're looking for. it's really handy for managing different workspaces within emacs.
https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el: Expressly designed to solve this problem. Use with tab-bar-mode
and burly-tabs-mode
.

commands.
Burly looks nice. But in my first use i ran into this bug https://github.com/alphapapa/burly.el/issues/28 So, that's not usable for me, sadly.
Please read that issue and post a reply to it with the version of Emacs you're using and the backtrace. And please test the branch in the comment that may fix the problem. As you can see, it's been several months since anyone provided feedback, so the fix may already be available, but it needs user confirmation.
