How can develop Windows C# App using BLE

I'm trying to develop a windows app that communicate with bluetooth device.

Now I have one bluetooth-usb dongle for my windows desktop and bluetooth BLE device.

I want to develop the app using C# and Visual Studio in Windows 10. But I can't find official documents and APIs at all. There's no C# API about BLE in windows? If it is, How can I develop a C# App using BLE?

The Microsoft Bluetooth team did a Build talk which includes BLE sample apps for GATT Server, Beacons, and Pairing. You can find the GitHub repo here.

A Build talk about Beacons and reading from a GATT Server can be found here.

There is a BLE example included in the Universal Windows sample programs provided by Microsoft. It is called BluetoothGattHeartRate.

Not that this is the end all, but it does get you going. It would be nice, given the whole IOT push if they had a Windows Bluetooth developer example that made configuring, and all the features really simple...
