Learn to FSH: A friendly introduction to FHIR Shorthand
summary
FSH is a concise, normative HL7 language for defining profiles, extensions, value sets and instances and it already underpins about 300 IG projects worldwide. Files in plain text compile with Sushi into FHIR JSON that the HL7 IG Publisher uses to produce a full Implementation Guide; Go Fish converts JSON back to FSH. The ecosystem includes fishschool.org, a VS Code extension and rule/alias features, and reports show it is stable, widely adopted, and production-ready.
