...and to trivially add to Axel's remark, the way you'd find the actual class file is that, from the documentation, you'd learn that the class file is called IEEEconf.cls, and


    % kpsewhich IEEEconf.cls
    /usr/local/texlive/2025/texmf-dist/tex/latex/ieeeconf/IEEEconf.cls

The texdoc manual would be the most useful thing, of course, but sometimes it can be useful to poke around in the sources.

kpsewhich is a tool useful more often than you might expect. To look at the LaTeX sources, for example, it's enough to do

    % less `kpsewhich latex.ltx`

Best wishes,

Norman
