Almost 0 Java experience & trying to incorporate a Java Library in my app for starting a SMART on FHIR app. How would I take this github repository (https://github.com/HealthLX/smart-on-fhir) and turn it into a .JAR file to use in my CFML?

This should give you a place to start from: https://helpx.adobe.com/coldfusion/developing-applications/using-web-elements-and-ex[…]nd-java-elements-in-cfml-applications/using-java-objects.html

As long as you have a supported JDK installed and ready to go, it looks like you can clone the project (or, likely safer to just download their last release here https://github.com/HealthLX/smart-on-fhir/archive/refs/tags/0.3.5.zip), cd into the root and run the command 'gradelw' (which will run the gradlew binary on macOS/*nix or gradelw.bat on windows). Just a quick peak at those looks like it will create the jar file for you.

Thank you a bunch guys. These are some excellent resources to get started, I think I know what I'm doing now 🙂

Looks like https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.healthlx.smartonfhir/config is the official distribution for the precompiled version.

Jochem is right. The jar is under "Files" here: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.healthlx.smartonfhir/config/0.3.5

You guys rock!!! Thank you so much. I love when things are as easy as a button click 😂
