CyanogenMod is a free, community built, aftermarket firmware distribution of Android 7.0 (Nougat), which is designed to increase performance and reliability over stock Android for your device.

CyanogenMod is based on the Android Open Source Project with extra contributions from many people within the Android community. It can be used without any need to have any Google application installed. Linked below is a package that has come from another Android project that restore the Google parts. CyanogenMod does still include various hardware-specific code, which is also slowly being open-sourced anyway.

All the source code for CyanogenMod is available in the CyanogenMod Github repo. And if you would like to contribute to CyanogenMod, please visit out Gerrit Code Review. You can also view the Changelog for a full list of changes & features.

What's working :

Probably everything. It's Nexus!

What's not working :

  • CM14 is WIP. CM specific functions may not be completely functional.

Code: 
Moving forward, this ROM is straight built from CM sources with device tree and kernel mentioned below.
No changes/fixes will be made in this ROM apart from ones done by CM team.
All additional fixes to ROM and feature addition will be done to [URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/development/rom-crdroid-android-beta-builds-t3480094"]crDroid ROM[/URL] which is CM-based.

Verizon call audio works normally.
LTE data works normally.
Center Clock works.
SystemUI mods work mostly (battery icon mod doesn't air)
Open Gapps 7.0 Micro works well without FC's
Snappy and smooth
Plays well with Elemental 4.07 N kernel (to avoid force encrypt and permissive for Arise Lecitus V4A sound mods)
Roots well with superuser zip and phh superuser apk
Power menu works
Vol Up to wake screen works
3 MinitBattery mod for AOSP7.0 works
Very nice ROM indeed :good:

This ROM has a kernel without force encrypt.

Besides that, yes, this already seems like a great ROM. Only thing that didn't work for me was restoring apps on setup. Using OpenGapps. Is this working for anyone else?

Some settings not working fully like status bar settings. LED is able to be enabled but no color change and blink options working. Little sluggish compared to purenexus 6.0 but thats to be expected at this stage of its development. It's not a daily driver FOR ME but i can see it easily being one for others.

To restore apps just delete cyanogen setup wizard from system apps then factory reset
