This is Candy5. Built straight from CyanogenMod source with commits from a variety of different Sources/ROMS.
We wanted to give the users a fun, fully customizable ROM.
We aim to add more features as this project progresses.

Awesome to have you here! And it's based on cyabogenmod? Is that a new ROM? :p

So the official cm12 won't come with root because superuser is removed from their sources?

Edit: I also wanted to ask about which firmware base the kernel in this rom supports. I'm assuming that since its based off of official cm sources, that the 4.2.2 firmware base works best with Candy 5 (to avoid screen brightness problems).

I've been told that superuser is still included in the official cm12 sources. I think timmytim just made an honest mistake about it in his second post here in this thread.

Quick report:everything worked well, fast and smooth, need flash SuperSU zip to get root. Any one notice that the UI eg. Icons, font... is not crisp as other KK or AOSP rom?

One more issue is the GPS icon is always stay on the status bar.

Tks for dev hardwork [emoji106]
