The new Windows Phone Dev Center has everything you need to create great apps and    add them to the Windows Phone Store for the world to see, try, and buy. You can    start creating apps anytime. When you’re ready to offer them in the Store, you’ll    need a subscription to the Dev Center where you can start the process of adding    them to the Store catalog.
