+# Packaging of Windows Store Apps
+
+You can learn more about signing and packaging of Windows Store Apps on [MSDN](https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh446593(v=vs.85).aspx).
+
+To be able to correctly package and sign Windows apps there are few things required:
+
+- A signing certificate
+- Identity details matching the provided signing certificate
+
+In Windows project, identity details are kept in a file named package.appxmanifest. This file is automatically populated every time a Cordova app is built. Identity holds 3 important fields.
+
+- Name
+- Publisher
+- Version
+
+*Name* and *Version* can be set from **config.xml**. *Publisher* can be provided as a build parameter or can be set on **build.json** file.
+
+
+
+A signing certificate can be provided from either CLI or through build.json file. The certificate related CLI flags are:
+
+- `--packageCertificateKeyFile` : Once a package signing certificate is created, this parameter can be used to associate the certificate with the app. This flag takes a file path as an argument. Eg. `> cordova build -- --packageCertificateKeyFile="platforms\windows\CordovaApp_TemporaryKey.pfx"`
+- `--packageThumbprint` : Package thumbprint is used to validate the authenticity of package certificate key file. When creating a certificate key file, this value will be provided to the end user. Eg. `> cordova build -- --packageCertificateKeyFile="platforms\windows\CordovaApp_TemporaryKey.pfx" --packageThumbprint="ABCABCABCABC123123123123"`
+
+Alternatively, these values could be specified using a build configuration file (build.json) using CLI (--buildConfig). A sample build configuration file:
+
+ {
+ "windows": {
+ "debug": {
+ "packageCertificateKeyFile": "platforms\\windows\\CordovaApp_TemporaryKey.pfx"
+ },
+ "release": {
+ "packageCertificateKeyFile": "c:\\path-to-key\\keycert.pfx",
+ "packageThumbprint": "ABCABCABCABC123123123123",
+ "publisherId": "CN=Microsoft Corporation, O=Microsoft Corporation, L=Redmond, S=Washington, C=US"
+ }
+ }
+ }
+
+There is also support to mix and match command line arguments and parameters in build.json file. Values from the command line arguments will get precedence.
