Windows 10 Mobile-how do Android and iOS apps work?

Windows 10 Mobile and Android

Can someone explain or link me to a post explaining how Android/iOS apps will work on Windows Phone? I'm confused on whether this is true, and if so, whether or not it will be a developer thing or a full-fledged marketplace. I've seen videos of people installing Android apps on Windows Phone using Developer Tools in Windows 10 for Mobile, but they were buggy and apps like Snapchat/Instagram couldn't utilize important things like the camera. Will these be fixed in the official launch of Windows 10 for Mobile, or is this what we're expecting to see pretty much?

Developers will reuse most of their code and make it super quick to make a WINDOWS app. Not an Android app, a Windows app. That's what will be happening, fully featured Windows apps.

Hi. I guess loads of people ask this same thing. Does this mean windows 10 tablets/pcs? And if it is so easy, why aren't they all flooding in?

The tools isn't even been released yet.
they can't use a tool that doesn't exist for public use.

those youtube videos showing android apps on windows phone are from the leaked un-finished tools.
