Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCoraline Sherratt is a versatile software developer with 13 years of experience building performant systems across embedded firmware, mobile SDKs, and backend services from Waterloo, Ontario. She has shipped low-latency server improvements and Android/iOS client features at Block, led a Metal-backed iOS SDK to 1.0 at Mappedin, and independently built fleet management and out-of-boxing tooling for IoT devices using Go, Swift, and Qt. An active Rust open-source contributor, Coraline has deep graphics and systems expertise demonstrated by core rendering work on Amethyst and low-level contributions to gfx-rs, cgmath, and OpenGL bindings. She combines hardware bring-up and driver experience from early BlackBerry cellular projects with product-facing SDK delivery, making her adept at crossing the boundary between device, platform, and client. Colleagues appreciate that despite a dry Github bio ("Tired."), she consistently delivers pragmatic, performance-focused solutions and automation that simplify onboarding and maintenance.

GLFW3 bindings and idiomatic wrapper for Rust.
Role in this project:Back-end Developer
Back-end DeveloperContributions:45 commits in 1 year 11 months
Contributions summary:Coraline contributed to the `glfw-rs` project by updating the code to work with new closure types. They modified multiple files, including `src/glfw/lib.rs`, `src/glfw/callbacks.rs`, and example files to address compatibility issues related to closure types and function calls. The user also fixed println statements and added features such as `#[feature(link_args)]` to facilitate building the project. Further modifications include removing a channel from the `Window` struct and placing it into an `EventReceiver` struct, and refactoring for multi-threaded rendering.
