Hi hypodyne,
Thank you for posting here.

Maybe you can use the
Windows Dev Center dashboard to publish your apps to the Windows Store and you must have a
developer account in order to access the Windows Dev Center dashboard and submit apps.
>>" I don't see any buttons in Visual Studio 2015, 2017 to create packages. I take it that its different than deployment. "
If your project is UWP type. you could use the
MakeAppx.exe tool to create app package. of course you also can right click the project and choose the store choose option, then create the app package.
Here is related to
document about how to create package and publish app.
Best Regards,
Hart
