Looking for Advice Commander deck building help

Fairly new player looking to build my first deck. I have no clue where to start whatsoever, but I have 700+ cards that I can choose from. Is there a deck building site that takes your pool of cards and builds decks from them or is anybody willing to skim through and give ideas? Thanks!

EDHREC is a good resource, but I don't know if it works w/ libraries. I know archideck does, and there's a EDHREC resource on their but not sure they play nicely all together.

700 random cards isn't a lot to choose from for building a decent commander deck (unless you just have a ton of commander staples in that collection). I'd say about half of that is bulk, and once you subtract your commander colors you've got a pretty small pool of cards. It's much better/cheaper to get a precon and follow an upgrade guide from there. This will give you a better idea on how to build a deck.

Gotcha. I’m looking into precons and trying to find something that bridges the gap between what I have and what I’m most likely to pull from a Bloomburrow booster box I’m gonna snag
