I'm Mees. SolwareX is not an agency with a team page of stock photos; it is me, and I say so up front because it is the honest version of what you are buying: one engineer who designs, builds, deploys, documents and supports the whole thing, with a small circle of familiar people helping keep the day-to-day running.
I spent my whole teenage years building for game communities: running gaming servers, putting together small webstores, learning what breaks under real players. The professional chapter started on Fiverr, where I sold custom FiveM scripts and was the platform's top FiveM scripting seller for a while, with 72 reviews to show for it. Freelancing wins the same trust one gig at a time, and I wanted a bigger audience than that, so in 2023 I stepped over to my own webstore: RX Scripts. GetGiven followed shortly after in the same year, my first SaaS. One Studios launched in 2026 as the premium FiveM brand, and MyChar arrived in 2026 as a new SaaS next to GetGiven, which still runs for its users while the new ideas go into MyChar.
That is the pattern behind everything here: a product gets built to the point where it runs largely on its own, keeps serving its users, and the building energy moves to the next thing. It is also how I treat client work: I take on a limited number of projects and finish what I start.
Formally: a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Avans University of Applied Sciences with a minor in Digital Nomads, front-end work at the agency RB-Media, and half a year building internal tooling at Achmea Bank under enterprise review and security standards. The bank taught process; my own products taught consequence, because when my code breaks at 2am, I am the one it wakes.
How I work
- One accountable person, from first call to deployment and beyond
- Fixed-scope quotes after a free intake, so the price is known before the work starts
- Proven stack over hype: Nuxt, TypeScript, Supabase, Stripe, and Lua where games are involved
- Documentation included, so you are never locked in
- Direct communication in English or Dutch, and an honest no when something is a bad idea
If that sounds like the kind of builder your project needs, describe it to me and I will tell you what I would do with it.
