IntelliJ Idea: Where are installed the plugins and configuration settings in Mac?

I installed for Mac (10.11) and Windows 10

For both, for the first time about their startup process, I selected and configured the custom plugins, such as Gradle, Git Github etc... Then I imported some projects based in Gradle such as spring-framework and spring-integration.

About Gradle was specified its settings about:

Each Project share a common and custom repository.

Well, due a problem:

Goal

In the re-install process I want see again the dialog where I was able to select the custom plugins at the beginning.

In Windows 10 I was able to find within the hidden AppData directory twice the JetBrains directory in two different directories (Local and Roaming), If I delete both directories. I can accomplish my goal

In MacOS I tried to find something like .jetbrains .idea or .intellij and nothing.

Question

Where are located the configurations settings in Mac?

Note: I am a STS/Eclipse user, so I am starting to play with this IDE. I watched some videos about to learn use this IDE, but I have this situation. In STS/Eclipse is enough delete the workspace directory that contains the .metadata hidden directory and done.

Check the Default IDE directories section of the IntelliJ IDEA WebHelp.

There is also the File | Manage Settings | Restore Default Settings... action which will make a back-up copy of your current IDE settings and reset them. So upon restart you will start with defaults.
