For manual configuration using an external text editor all files are found at .minecraft/config, named as MOD_ID-client.toml, MOD_ID-common.toml, or MOD_ID-server.toml, depending on the type of config. Not all types might exist for a mod, if any at all.

🌟 Thanks a lot to Playelectro for originally creating this mod as Magical Lanterns. Arcane Lanterns is a port to modern Minecraft with many small improvements, fixes and overhauls.
