Chapter 10. Packaging and Publishing

Windows Store is like a huge shopping mall and your app, once published to the Store, will be like a small shop in that mall; the Windows Store Dashboard is where you will set all the branding, advertising, and marketing material for the shop. Visual Studio is your production environment and the Store is your destination, and everything else in between is in the Windows Store Dashboard. In this chapter we will be introduced to the Store and learn how to get an app through all the stages into publishing. Also, we will see how we can interact with the Store from within Visual Studio.
