Do I really need to use SLIME for Lisp programming? (alien.top)

I have been wanting to program in lisp for a good while, but I do not enjoy using Emacs, and Slimv and Vlime haven't functioned. So, would having Vim in one terminal editing a file and then a REPL in another work?

Slimv and Vlime haven't functioned

What exactly do you mean by this? Either should just work! Did you face any specific difficulties with them?

Slimv requires Vim with python, which I don't have, and Vlime requires me to run sbcl --load /vlime/lisp/start-vlime.lisp every time.
