Bernard Kolobara is the CEO of Lunatic and a software leader with 12 years of experience building high-performance, scalable server-side systems. He leads development of an Erlang-inspired WebAssembly runtime—driving core WASM binary patching, reduction counting, a process-spawning API and a Wasmer port—bringing systems-level performance and distributed process management expertise. Previously at CERN he designed and shipped critical single-page applications for the ATLAS data acquisition team, including streaming updates and SSO-enabled tools used daily by shifters and experts. He co-founded a real-estate CRM and now combines hands-on architecture with product leadership, also building developer tools like flawless.dev alongside active open-source work. Based in Vienna with an MS in Computer Science, Bernard uniquely bridges low-level runtime engineering and user-facing product experience.

Contributions summary:Bernard's commits focused on refactoring and enhancing the Lunatic runtime, an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly. They made changes to the core WASM binary patching functionality using the Walrus library, including modifications for reduction counting and the addition of a process-spawning API. These changes involved both the core runtime and standard library functions for distributed process management, indicating a focus on system-level architecture and performance optimization. This includes porting the project to the Wasmer runtime.
This library contains higher level Rust wrappers for low level Lunatic syscalls.
