MacOS is actually pretty good about this. It restores applications on restart, and it’s provided applications pick up where they left off.
I don’t use the workspace feature on the Mac, I assume they’re recovered as well.
Obviously applications need to be restart aware as well. I really like how the provided Mac apps (Pages, Numbers, etc. ) work with the first class document model in the system. I have dozens of Untitled documents across apps, some are years old. Never “saved” them. They just exist. Across reboots, app upgrades, and OS upgrades.
I wish more apps embraced my lazy house keeping.
I don’t know how the documents sync across devices, if at all.
I wanted to mimic the OS document model in Java with my own app, but that’s easier said than done.

After reboots, which are annoyingly often, MacOS places all my carefully organized windows and their layout into a messy pile on the first/primary space and I have to spend a significant amount of time to get everything back to the state I want. This is also a huge pain in the ass when moving between external and internal monitor, where my windows and their size ends up not how I want them every single time.
