Entries are flooding in for our amazing Windows 8 app competition - but don't worry: there's still plenty of time to enter and share in £40K worth of amazing prizes. If you've already got an app in the Windows Store then you can enter it straight away. If you've never built a Windows app, then now's the perfect time to start!
You don’t even need to learn a new language - you can build Windows 8 apps with HTML and CSS, for example, if you’re a web developer; or Objective-C, Cocoa Touch and XCode, if you’re familiar with building iPhone and iPad apps. Plus there's a ton of resources and information, written in words that normal people can understand, on our special microsite to help you get up to speed.

There are prizes for the ten best apps in competition, and more prizes are being given out EVERY DAY until 3.30pm on Christmas Eve, in a series of prize draws chosen entirely at random. So everybody has a chance to win! Here's the full prize breakdown:
