How do I generate the Let's Encrypt certificate and key on my own device? [More info inside]

You can install Certbot using the instructions at

For generating the certificate, try running

certbot certonly --manual -d example.com -d www.example.com

(If you’re running certbot as ./certbot-auto, substitute ./certbot-auto in the command line here.)

The -d parameters should list all of the domains that you want to be covered by the certificate.
