Woohoo! It’s finally open!
The Windows Store is now open for app submissions from all developers – individuals and companies – the last significant milestone in the rollout of the Windows Store before general availability of Windows 8 on October 26.
If you’ve been waiting for invitation restrictions to lift or waiting for market support, the Windows Store is ready for you to join today. Just go to the Windows Store Dashboard on the Windows Dev Center and sign up. To top it off, all paid MSDN subscribers will receive a Windows Store subscription included, at no additional cost.
Please visit the Windows Store Blog for full details. The dev tools are free, the SDK is ready, and we have a ton of great supporting content to help you build your app and submit it for Store certification. Sign up now, reserve your app names, and get your app published in the Store in time for general availability of Windows 8. Good luck!
