Question

I installed the app via the .dmgfile provided in the releases section and have since tweaked the settings.
I would like to migrate my settings to a homebrew installation of the app in order to automate installation via a Brewfile.
What is the location/s of configuration files, where my settings are saved, on MacOS?
