Community-reported invitees only — applicants who weren't invited aren't here. Cells with fewer than 5 contributors are hidden for privacy. A portrait of the cohort, not a recipe.
Detailed demographic breakdowns are paused while we finalise a data-licensing arrangement with the upstream community-data source — aggregate counts above remain available.
