			'''hawkee.com''' was one of many [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIRC mIRC] script archives popular in the late 90s and early 2000s.

			== History ==
			Founded in January 1997 by [[Scott Aikin]]. The site originally hosted mIRC scripts, add-ons, scripting tips, weekly challenges, and collections of shareware and freeware programs. By the end of 1997, the site shifted its focus primarily to mIRC scripting.

			In 2003, Hawkee introduced account creation and began focusing more on building a community. Around 2004, the site started to incorporate advertising and affiliate marketing, launching a web hosting service through myhawkee.com (which ceased in 2016).

			By 2005, Hawkee began transitioning into a social network for programmers, emphasizing code sharing and collaboration. In 2012, the platform stopped supporting full scripts and began focusing exclusively on smaller code snippets. During this period, the site featured multiple programming languages other than mIRC scripting such as:
			* BYOND
			* C++
			* CSS
			* HTML5
			* Java
			* JavaScript
			* MySQL
			* Perl
			* PHP
			* Python
			* Ruby / Rails
			* Shell
			* TCL
			* Visual Basic

			Around 2015, Scott Aikin branched out into FPV (First-Person View) builds, which eventually led to the creation of RotorBuilds.com.
