Vibhav Deo.

Vibhav Deo — known to friends as Vibu — is the co-founder and CEO of Arelixis, a software studio he runs out of Bhilai, Chhattisgarh. He designs and engineers production web, mobile, and enterprise software end-to-end, the same way the studio ships every project.

His work sits at the intersection of TypeScript, Next.js, React Native, Expo, Supabase, and the wider GCP stack. He treats infrastructure, data modelling, and design as one continuous problem rather than three. Most of what Arelixis ships is operated, monitored, and maintained by the studio after launch — which means the architecture decisions get to be his too.

Through Arelixis, Vibhav has shipped websites, mobile apps, and internal platforms for clients across education, retail, hospitality, faith institutions, real estate, and industrial verticals — each one on its own custom domain, each one still live. The studio doesn’t parade client logos; the work itself is the case study.

Outside the studio he writes about engineering, builds a steady stream of personal tooling, and obsesses over the kind of small craft details — typography, motion, latency budgets — that separate a real product from a portfolio piece.
