In discussions with real developers in the industry, the comment they say most about job prospects is "the ability to collaborate is just as, if not more, important as your coding knowledge". Coding can be taught and learned, but personality fits tend to be a little more static. It's important that you commit to a mindset of collaboration now, so that it is habitual by the time you're ready to apply development jobs.To wrap up our cumulative project, you are going to answer some questions as though you were collaborating. You'll be presented a situation and you need to select the answer choice that best navigates that problem.Question 1An aspiring developer submitted a design specification document for an app called CloudWatch. It's a weather app that takes in the user's location to give real time weather data. Their system architecture reads:The app will be programmed in Python.What advice might you give this student?(1 point)ResponsesThere are plenty of weather apps, trying making something different.There are plenty of weather apps, trying making something different.Everything looks great to me!Everything looks great to me!Wouldn't it be better to develop this app in AngularJS?Wouldn't it be better to develop this app in AngularJS?Consider adding a piece about how location data is acquired.

The best option for providing constructive feedback to the student is:
Consider adding a piece about how location data is acquired.
This response encourages the student to think critically about an important aspect of their app's functionality. It promotes collaboration by inviting further discussion and consideration of key details that may enhance the design and usability of the app, rather than simply making subjective judgments or suggesting a completely different technology stack.
