Probably, LineageOS (CyanogenMod) is the highest rated custom firmware for Android Smartphones. The ROM was too much famous because of the Cyanogen Theme engine and Capps, which use to allow heavy customization in the UI. However, theme Engine is no more after Cyanogen has turned into LineageOS, from which it was forked in December 2016.
The Nacked AOSP skinned ROM comes without Google Apps. So, you need to install Gapps package after flashing the ROM into your device.
As you continue reading below, we will guide you how to install LineageOS 14.1 Android 7.1.1 Nougat Custom Firmware on Nextbit Robin with an easy step-by-step tutorial.
