BLE desktop app for the Microsoft HoloLens/Windows 10 platform

Hi, guys. I'm using PCA10056 and SDK 15.3's BLE UART peripheral example.

I also have a Microsoft HoloLens (the first version which runs Windows 10 and the HoloLens shell carries over and adapts many elements from the Windows desktop environment, supports BLE 4.1)

and the HoloLens 2 (supports BLE 5.0) which runs the Windows 10 holographic OS.

I need to pair the PCA10056 BLE UART peripheral to the HoloLens device and get the data using a Windows 10 application.

When running the Unity 3D application on the HoloLens, I have to control the PCA10056, like blinking LED1 and 2.

- Is it possible to develop a Windows 10 application in order to get/send BLE UART data?

- If this is possible, what will be the available tools (Qt5, WinForm, WPF application, Unity Bluetooth Script)

I read that the majority of the previous questions were told to use the nRF dongle. However, this cannot connect the USB dongle, I wish to hear your advice, please.

Thanks for your help!
