Creating an Implementation Guide with FHIR Shorthand
FHIR Shorthand (FSH) is a friendly language for defining the content of IGs and, more recently, logical models and FHIR resources. By making simple declarative statements, you can define a wide variety of FHIR artifacts such as profiles, extensions, and value sets. With the addition of a bit of markdown, you can define everything you need for a complete IG or resource page in the FHIR specification. The FSH language itself is an HL7 standard (STU) and is currently used in over 100 IG projects worldwide. We will tour fshschool.org (aka School of FSH), a resource for all things FSH-y. We will demonstrate FSH Online, where you can interactively go back and forth between FSH and JSON, and share your FSH examples with other users. Finally, if you have an existing IG and are not yet using FSH, you can convert your IG into a FSH project using GoFSH, making it easier to manage, extend, and maintain.
