Digital services for Amsterdam‑West and the Jordaan
a pleasant view is the one-person operation of Cristovao Verstraeten.
Works in Dutch, English, or French. Practical for Amsterdam‑West where teams often mix languages.
Websites, hosting, and the practical IT around them, for a handful of local businesses. I also maintain Eleventy Baseline, the foundation this site runs on.
I keep the client list deliberately small for local work, and offer support to teams building on Baseline.
Being nearby makes a difference
A quick update, a domain renewal, a printer acting up. The kind of work that's hard to scope and easy to handle when you can stop by.
That's why I can answer the phone, pull your setup from memory, and not disappear for weeks at a time.
Services
Website maintenance
Ongoing maintenance for your site. Part of the support plan.
IT support
Practical IT around it: email, logins, devices. Part of the same plan.
Website projects
Scoped work when you want something built, improved, or straightened out.
Working with me
The work happens mostly here in the neighbourhood. Remote is fine when it's a fit.
I reply to all enquiries within a day.
Around the corner, when you need me.
