Are there design related guidelines for Windows 10?

[Brecht Callens]

I know Windows 8(.1) had design guidelines, because most apps looked kind of the same. Does Windows 10 have guidelines too or can app designers choose for themselves how their apps will look?

Microsoft's own applications don't offer any common ground so if guidelines do exist they're not being followed
