I need to create a delphi app to install and run into a Tablet with Windows 10 - home edition.
If I use Delphi XE8/Win 8.1 and create a Metropolis or VCL app, could I be able to install it into that Tablet and run without problem?
If is not possible, what type of app could I create with Delphi XE8/Win 8.1 to run into a windows 10 tablet - home edition?
For now I didn´t buy the tablet because I don´t know if the app will work.

At this time, Delphi cannot produce true Universal (formerly known as Metro) apps. It can only produce native Win32 apps that look and feel like Universal apps (and can access a few select WinRT APIs that have been made accessible to Win32), but they are not true Universal apps from Windows' perspective.
So, Delphi cannot be used to develop apps that can be deployed through the Windows App store (at least until Microsoft releases its "Project Centennial" bridge, which is essentially just a Universal wrapper for Win32 apps).
That being said, the Windows 10 Mobile OS (for phones and small tablets) cannot (yet) run native Win32 apps, only Universal apps. On tablets with a screen size of 8" or larger, tablet manufacturers may decide to install the full Windows 10 desktop OS instead, in which case native Win32 apps can be run.
