The main benefits of STM are composability and modularity .
Scala library ZIO, which includes an implementation of fibers, STM and more.
Just for the record, this is rather technical and low-level, but it may be an interesting read as I think this is what Swift uses for its coroutine:
The Python library Trio, which implements “structured concurrency”: Trio: a friendly Python library for async concurrency and I/O — Trio 0.21.0 documentation.
A couple blog posts with background on structured concurrency: Notes on structured concurrency, or: Go statement considered harmful — njs blog and Timeouts and cancellation for humans — njs blog.
A forum for discussing structured concurrency: Structured concurrency - Trio forum
