Summary
Adds an "Example (Petstore)" tab to the existing
<CodeBlocks>in the SDK quickstart init step. Users who don't have their own OpenAPI spec can use the public Swagger Petstore URL to try out SDK generation immediately.Previously the quickstarts had a Fern Definition option with a built-in
imdb.ymlexample, but it was removed when the init flow was streamlined to only show the OpenAPI path. This restores a "try it out" path as a third code block alongside the existing local and URL options.The change is in the shared
init-fern-folder.mdxsnippet, so it appears on all language-specific quickstart pages and the top-level SDKs quickstart.Review & Testing Checklist for Human
