Boris K.

Founder & Editor, ViceHub

Boris built and runs ViceHub, and has spent the last year working directly with the FiveM ecosystem — running the server-population crawler that tracks every public Cfx.re server on a five-minute cadence, and building the AI support tooling used inside FiveM Discord communities. He writes the guides here, and he is accountable for everything published on the site.

Boris writes every guide on ViceHub. The articles are researched and drafted with AI assistance and then edited before publication — how that works, and how corrections are handled, is set out in the editorial policy.

How to Make a FiveM Server in 2026 (txAdmin, Start to Finish)
