A frame configuration saves the sizes and positions (and more) of all

configuration across Emacs sessions. That is the only code you would need to
write.

I believe, however, that there are already libraries that do that.
desktop.el is one that comes to mind, but I have never used it - someone
else can confirm or correct this.

I also use desktop.el, and have for several years. It is primarily focused on saving the list of buffers with their files, directories, point and mark and various buffer-local variables. If it can save frame configs I haven't seen how to do it, but perhaps that would make a good extension... If I have some more time to spend on this perhaps I will give it a try.
