### History
ArcMenu was first released in 2017 by [AndyC](https://gitlab.com/LinxGem33). The original ArcMenu project can be found [here](https://gitlab.com/LinxGem33/Arc-Menu).
In 2017, ArcMenu _started_ as a fork of the Zorin menu extension by Zorin OS. As it's own separate project, ArcMenu rapidly began developing innovative features and quickly diverged away from Zorin menu thanks to the works of [AndyC](https://gitlab.com/LinxGem33) (2017 - 2020), [AndrewZaech](https://gitlab.com/AndrewZaech) (2019 - current), [Alexander Rüedlinger](https://github.com/lexruee) (2017), and other contributors. ArcMenu has been rewritten from the ground up since it's inception and has it's own separate, original, and unique code base, unrelated to that of Zorin menu.
