A new version of Android is out. It is Android 5.0 Lollipop which is the biggest update that Google has ever rolled out. It brings a brand new user interface often called as Material Design, new animations, better performance and new features that were absent on previous versions of Android.

There is a tradition in the Android community. Every time a new version of Android gets released, developers also release a new ROM called CyanogenMod. CM is a custom ROM developed by the CyanogenMod company. It is based on the latest version of Android and each number of CyanogenMod build represents an Android version.
