Medplum / FHIR Coding Style

Resource Structure

• Every FHIR object must include resourceType as first field.
• Use PascalCase for resource types (Patient, ServiceRequest), camelCase for fields (birthDate, valueQuantity).
• Never hardcode resource IDs. Let the server assign them on create.
• Include meta.profile when creating resources that must conform to a StructureDefinition.
