I design and ship backend systems, relay infrastructure, and mobile apps — the kind that stay online when thousands of people are actually using them.
I'm Gidmo. Most of my work is backend systems and infrastructure — the layer that has to keep functioning whether ten people are using it or ten thousand are.
My main project, ArenaAnywhere, is a relay service for PSP multiplayer gaming running on servers across three continents. It got picked up and integrated directly into PPSSPP, the most widely used PSP emulator, as an official feature. I also built VioFlow, a WhatsApp-native lead management platform for real estate agencies — an AI bot that qualifies leads, scores them, and routes the hot ones straight to an agent, end to end.
I use whatever the problem actually needs — C for performance-critical server code, Kotlin and Flutter for mobile, Node.js for the services tying everything together.
Things I've built, shipped, and kept running.
A free relay service that lets PSP players connect for ad-hoc multiplayer over the internet. Runs on servers across South Africa, Asia, and Europe. I built the infrastructure, the companion Android app for direct peer connections, and handle all ongoing operations.
View project →A WhatsApp-native lead management platform for real estate agencies. An AI assistant handles inbound leads conversationally, qualifies them against a live property database, scores them by budget and urgency, and hands off qualified buyers straight to an agent — all inside the same WhatsApp chat. Built end to end: automation backend, Cloudflare Worker API, and the agency dashboard.

I'm currently taking on a limited number of freelance projects. Tell me what you're building.
