Google later released the factory images for these devices and developers are now trying to create custom ROMs based on Android Oreo for their devices. The recent device to get the Android Oreo 8.0 Custom ROM is the Nexus 5.
The device was launched 4 years ago with Android Lollipop 5.0 and Google said that it will get one more major update. But the Nexus 5 has been updated to Android Nougat and now to Android Oreo through the unofficial builds of Custom ROMs created by developers for the device.
