New to python, do I need an IDE or is vim still good enough?

And any decent Unix-alike (most OSen apart from Windows) comes with its
own IDE: the shell, a good text editor (Vim or Emacs being the primary
candidates), and a terminal multiplexor (such as ‘tmux’ or GNU Screen).

Learning to use that development environment will benefit you far more
than any language-specific tool.
