+/**
+ * Fiber class
+ * a fiber is a userspace thread with it's own context. They can be used to
+ * implement coroutines, emulated threading systems and certain asynchronous
+ * patterns.
+ *
+ * This class implements fibers at a low level, thus allowing greater freedom
+ * to implement such patterns. This fiber class is 'threadsafe' only one fiber
+ * can be running at a time and threads will be locked while trying to yield to
+ * a running fiber until it yields. WARNING exchanging two running fibers between
+ * threads will cause a deadlock. In order to prevent a deadlock, each thread should
+ * have an intermediary fiber, you switch to the intermediary fiber of the current
+ * thread and then from it switch to the expected fiber. This way you can exchange
+ * 2 fibers within 2 different threads.
