This article analyzes the differences between two key U.S. government technology initiatives: 18F and the U.S. Digital Service (USDS). It details their origins from the Presidential Innovation Fellows program, contrasting 18F's focus on embedding a modern, open-source software development culture within agencies with USDS's goal of instilling confidence and strategic oversight in high-impact projects.
