Hey all,
I'm new to FHIR. I currently work at a 3rd party healthcare administrator and I'm looking to dip my toes into FHIR. I set up a Web API project in C# and imported the R4 nuget package. What I'm having trouble with is figuring out where to go from there. I have watched several videos on fhir in .net and while they are informative of several key, individual features, none seem to give any detailed info on setting up a fhir project and server locally.
Any advice would be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

What parts of FHIR are you interested in implementing (or implementing first)?

Have you looked at https://github.com/FirelyTeam/fhirstarters/tree/master/dotnet ? If you're new to FHIR it's probably best to play around with clients first, before embarking on the server side of things.

@Lloyd McKenzie First i'm looking to figure out the best way to spin up a .net fhir server that will communicate with our existing SQL Server database.

You might look at Spark (https://github.com/FirelyTeam/spark). It's an open-source .NET server. If you want to roll your own, it should give you some basic ideas about the components you'll need to create. (Or you might just decide to adapt it.)
