What tools are available / recommended to support FHIR development & implementation?
The FHIR specification itself includes several tools - like schemas, to help with implementing FHIR. There is also a list available of Open Source Implementations (reference platforms) that implement the specification for various common development platforms. These tools are provided for implementer convenience, but there is no requirement to use them; other platforms can be used.
