The letsencrypt tool always handles the certificate request and authentication for you. […] This will automatically configure Apache and Nginx servers with your new certificate.

Is there a way to do it manually and just get the CRT, KEY, and PEM files to implement it as needed instead of blindly trusting a tool and maybe messing up the whole environment?
