Sublime Text + GoSublime; vim + go-vim.

There's no fixed rule. If you need dependable reproducible builds, current best-practice is to vendor your libraries in your repo.

Thanks, sublime tex and vim with plugins are still a long way off what you get from a good ide. Just glancing there is no real refactoring support, its more around auto complete.

Refactoring in Go is accomplished with `go fix`.

Is VIM considered an IDE?

I am aware it is powerful and has as many features as an IDE but seems like it will take a fair bit of time to learn (on top of learning a new language). Eclipse is fairly intuitive by comparison.
