After the {external-secrets-operator} is installed, you can customize its behavior by editing the `ExternalSecretsConfig` custom resource (CR). This lets you modify components like the external-secrets controller, the cert-controller, the webhook, and the `bitwardenSecretManagerProvider` plugin and also lets you set environment variables for the Operator pod.
