What language would a developer use to develop an application for the Bloomberg App

What language would a developer use to develop an application for the Bloomberg App Portal as described here: Bloomberg press room

To be specific, I’m not asking on how to integrate with BBG on the desktop via the Anywhere APIs. This is a question deploying a custom “app” within the terminal.

Perhaps a follow up question that should be asked separate is, has any small firm successfully deployed an app there?

    According to this link singledealerplatforms.org/tag/bloomberg-app-portal/ the language used is C#, 

    For $500 per month, developers will be given access to a Software Development Kit (SDK), documentation, data feed, up to 3 Terminals and developer support
Apps are subject to code review before being accepted onto the Portal
Apps are written in C# using .NET and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF)

    According to this link http://www.moneymanagement.com.au/product-news/2012/bloomberg-app-portal-financial-services-software the App Portal is designed so that a PhD student could publish their own app – they may be speaking of a real case here.

    If you do some more searching, you’ll come across a couple of apps that look like they’re from small/new companies, why not email them and ask? http://www.percentageit.com/ for example is a small company that develops apps for third parties as well, http://www.bbapplabs.com is similar for Asia
