Depends on what OS you are using, IE Windows, Mac, Linux etc. There is a website that tells you where your save locations are kept. Once you know it, you copy the save folder, and send it to your friend.
From there, they just put the save folder into wherever the other saves are, on their PC.
If that's unclear please tell me, and I will try to give better steps~!

The question is not in the transfer of a world/farm from one PC to another but a character only. The host (player 1) stays the same, but the client (player 2) already has some progress on the character in the save of the host and wants to join the same host and world with different steam account keeping same progression as before (skills, inventory etc.). I have tried to edit <steamID> of the client player in the main world save of the host from steam profile 1 to steam profile 2 but the client still unable to use the advanced character.

The character is stored in the save file entirely. You cannot send the character without the save file.

Evidence can be found by loading your save file into this website: https://mouseypounds.github.io/stardew-checkup/

It will describe everything about your character, farm, etc. They are not stored separately.

How about loading a new character into the world so its stats and data will appear in the file and then manually change them into desired ones? I will try to do that.
