All the Dart tools (e.g., the analyzer) can be used without any IDEs. There is also a VIM plugin for Dart. So you can definitely do that.
Having said that, I think a huge part of what makes the Dart experience nice is tooling (autocompletion, navigation, analysis).
Whereas for JS/Ruby going from a text editor to an IDE does not make a huge difference, for Dart, mostly due to type annotations, it's definitely a win.
So if you don't like Dart Editor because of its Eclipse nature (which I can totally understand), try WebStorm. WebStorm also has a VIM plugin. If you, however, dislike IDEs in general, then try the VIM plugin.
