Raghavendra Bhat

Senior AI Engineer. Vibe Engineer. Open-source builder. Creator of Nixopus and LucaMail.

I build infrastructure tools that let developers deploy like Vercel while owning their servers. Nixopus has grown to 1300+ stars and 500+ beta users — entirely open-source, zero lock-in. I write Go and Next.js by day, think about self-hosting and clean abstractions at night.

Now

Building Nixopus — one-click deploys, built-in terminal, file manager, Caddy reverse proxy, 150+ extensions
