Federalist

Building and hosting secure, scalable, easy to edit websites should be fast and cheap. In government, it isn’t. Let’s build an open source platform to solve that.


The Problem

  • Cheap to distribute, expensive to publish
  • Diverse requirements, sharing is hard
  • Each agency certifies each of its sites (each time)
  • Popular solutions do too much

The Solution

  • Small pieces loosely joined
  • Forkable templates
  • Universal content editor
  • Reusable publishing infrastructure

Healthcare.gov


HealthCare.Gov was originally built in a garage

Washington Post


This new flagship federal .gov website is "open by design, open by default." That's a huge win for the American people.

The Atlantic


  • > 2,000 pages
  • 2 servers (one backup)
  • (planned on 32 for Wordpress)
  • > 250,000 concurrent users
  • 0% downtime

The scrappy team used principles of "agile development," a rapid and lean style that’s been en vogue in Silicon Valley the past few years... Healthcare.gov, part one, was lauded for nailing both form and function "in a decidedly 21st-century way: cheaper, faster and scalable, using open source tools and open standards"

The Verge


Easy content editing


Open Source

  • Prose
  • Jekyll-Hook
  • Jekyll-Google-Analytics
  • Best practices documented (DigitalGov.gov)

Sustainability

  • Open source platform (.org vs .com)
  • Pay for what you use
  • Share in economy of scale

Our advantage

  • The team
  • The tools
  • The experience

Getting it done

  • Fit into existing projects
  • Pilot with 18F and GSA sites
  • Use Open Opportunities network for early adopters

Budget

  • Initial product team: $125,600
    • product lead, two devs, one design, one research / sales
  • Tech: $6,840 / year
  • On-going: $333,400 / year (recoverable)
  • Agile development == schedule / budget flex
