Hi, if I want to access my own account with an API do I need to create an App? I just want to read and write programatically to my own account, not publish an app or anything

This doesn't matter. API needs authentication to work. On other side authentication is granting access for particular application (the one you need) to access particular account(s) (either your own only or other).

App Console.
You can find everything you need to get started with the Dropbox API, including documentation, tutorials, and SDKs with the following links:
