New to bioinformatics: Best tools for immune repertoire search + epitope prediction?

Hey everyone,

I’m new to bioinformatics and diving into adaptive immune receptor repertoire (AIRR) data. I'm looking for the best databases or pipelines to handle two things:

Query Repertoire Data: Find public BCR/TCR sequence datasets.

Epitope Prediction: Predict antigen specificity for those sequences, or find data where the mapping is already done.

Are there any reliable "all-in-one" platforms for this, or should I expect to pair a data repository (like iReceptor or VDJdb) with separate ML tools?

Any web portal, Python, or R recommendations for a beginner would be awesome. Thanks!
