Title explains it pretty well! Wiped my computer as was running slow etc. Now when I try to restart holding cmd + R, there’s no disk to install macOS from… Help?
Try Option+CMD+R on boot up. this will download the most recent version available for your Macbook Pro. Jason
Emma - You’ll want to restart your system and press Command (⌘) and R keys which will launch into internet recovery. Reference: Mac startup key combinations
The title of this inquiry is confusing to me because I have not been able to figure out if you don’t have an option to install OSX from the Internet as in the illustration on this page: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904 or if it’s your own hard drive that doesn’t show up as a drive upon which to install OSX. If you follow these steps: How to fix Macintosh HD not mounted in Disk Utility? Boot your Mac into Recovery Mode. …Select Disk Utility from the macOS Utilities menu and click Continue.Select the unmounted Macintosh HD from the left-hand panel.Click First Aid on the top of the window and wait while it verifying and repairing errors.

Most of the time the ssd cable of macbook gets broken or gets disconnected after a rough use of it so when the ssd cable either disconnects or gets broken the flashing file appears on screen. To check this issue you have to press command+R , a menu will appear on screen and when you click on disk utility there will be a disk named mac os base system in which there we wont able to click on any of the options given so from that point we know that there is a problem with our ssd cable. This happens because the ssd controls all the system management and mac os system so when the cable wont read the ssd then how a mac os will install and how it can be erase/repartition and repair itself. I hope you liked my answer to the problem
