Hi, can you please explain the Wasm part? Is there any particular reason to use Wasm? I don't know wasm but does it use a specific threading/concurrency mechanism in it?

Looking at the Lunatic readme: https://github.com/lunatic-lang/lunatic#architecture

"Lunatic treats WebAssembly instances as actors. Using WebAssembly in this context allows us to have per actor sandboxing and removes some of the most common drawbacks in other actor implementations."

And it would be something more lightweight then a process/thread/green thread I presume?
