2017

2017 (MMXVII) was a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar, the 2017th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 17th year of the 3rd millennium and the 21st century, and the 8th year of the 2010s decade.
This year of historic events like the rise of minderians and the middle age of the Aero Community (within the Discord Server and YouTube videos). It was the first year of Arsen54800's work on the community, and the public avaliability of Update 5, while beforehand the WHwNRV kit termed Pre-Update 5 was dominated minderian mockups, but even during this year, TehAarex built his own Update 4 extension. The end of 2017 was considered one of the great periods of our community, with the absence of the ideas deemed as cringe (My Little Pony and user-based ideas dominated the cringeworthy Windows ideas.)
The Windows Mockups branding was went on popularity on this and the following years, and was planned to be Minderia-free.
The chromatican core was often linked as this year, with the rise of Chromatic and Santuchi.
