What are they?

Windows Store App Labs are locations where app builders can get access to the newest Windows 8 devices, receive app building and design guidance from Windows experts, and potentially get invited to App Fast Track, which is currently only being offered to Named partners. All for free!

App Testing on multiple devices

Developers can test and debug their app on multiple devices and form factors including Microsoft Surface, other ARM tablets, Intel Ultrabooks, All-in-ones and more.

Guidance from PFEs, Champs and design agencies

Each day, well have a different Windows Experts come into the labs to assist developers with testing their app and providing guidance to help them get their app in Store
