Overview

StoreBroker is a PowerShell module that provides command-line interaction and automation for Application and In-App Purchase submissions to the Windows Store via the Windows Store Submission API.

It's designed for all Windows developers that publish their apps into the Windows Store.

Most Microsoft-published applications in the Windows Store have metadata (screenshots, captions, descriptions, feature lists, etc...) localized across 64 languages; updating all of these values manually through the Developer Portal can take hours (or days). StoreBroker is able to complete a full metadata update in a matter of minutes with just two commands, and that's just the start of what it can do.
