I have Elastic and Kibana installed on server. I tried to set up the whole stuff properly so I am going according the [documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/configuring-stack-security.html).  
I cant believe it is SOOOOOOO complicated to run elastic. I have a lot of services running on the server but none of them has so complicated installation as Elastic including certificates for Apache sites.

The question is: Is there a way to have simple documentation for one node Elastic + Kibana without other services I did not know they exists till now to make the process user friendly?

I am on the last step to set up https for Kibana but it drives me crazy and want to jump through the window.

Thanks.
