If on Linux or OSX, launching Inkscape will launch X11 or XQuartz in the background, which is just a non-native "windowing" application.
Photoshop is to Gimp as is Illustrator to Inkscape. Editing raw images like this can be done with Photoshop or Gimp. Image formats like PNG, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, and others are just that – plain old grid-of-pixel images. When importing one of these other file formats, it's good practice to convert to an SVG. Other "vector graphics" file formats include PDF, EPS, and AI (Adobe Illustrator). Inkscape's native file format is the SVG, which stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. This tutorial is meant to be a "quick start" guide for using Matlab or Python with Inkscape to make good quality scientific figures. There are good online resources for questions on specific tools and visual effects. In a sentence, this means that at its core, Inkscape is about manipulating objects, vectors, text, and curves, rather than pixels. It is incredibly useful for figure design and layout. Inkscape is a free vector graphics editor.
