SMART Guidelines Starter Kit
2.1.0 - ci-build
SMART Guidelines Starter Kit, published by WHO. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 2.1.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/WorldHealthOrganization/smart-ig-starter-kit/tree/main and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions
Authoring a L3 FHIR Implementation Guide involves taking the L2 input, using the recommended processes and tools, and creating, validating and publishing publishing L3 FHIR artifacts that correspond to the L2 specifications.
The L3 FHIR Implementation Guides are intended to be machine readable, but also will include narrative content that are human readable and shall speak to the L2 specifications covered in the FHIR IG being authored. More details about authoring narrative are included in this page.
The first step in L3 production is an input verification of the L2 content. L3 authors create the necessary artifacts to cover the entire L2 specification and demonstrate a working SMART Guideline. This includes several types of artifacts and possibly narrative content.
For WHO published L2 DAKs, each DAK will be represented as a GitHub repository along with a published PDF DAK word document. The GitHub repository shall contain the structured spreadsheets, bpmn files and more, that were authored during the publication process of the DAK. Authoring presumes the L2 content is available and consistent. It is possible that the L2 content gets changed, notably due to input from L3 authoring. It is important to track the versions of L2 content, especially when adapting L2 or L3 to a local implementation, in order to track changes and assess impact of those changes.

While the exact authoring steps depend on the inputs, the key sequence could normally consist of the following steps:
