Very little is different. Fedora is the community version. It has twice 
yearly updates (and many individual software updates also any time).

Red Hat is mostly based on Fedora. It has "enterprise" support basically 
meaning it is slower change and has professional assistance for it.

Basically the command usage is identical but Fedora may have some newer 
features and tools.

You may want to search google for a Fedora FAQ.
