I am new to homey (about 1 month) but am progressing from flows to advanced flows to the limit of those advanced flows and want to start on my first homeyscript. However when I try to create a new one there is no button, the + button takes me to an empty space. From quick start tutorials I can see there should be some examples on the left.

I am running the latest Homey SHS, everything else seems to be running fine. restarting homey, the system hosting the container or clearing my browser cache does not help.

What else can I do to get scripts working?

Did you install the [HomeyScript](https://homey.app/en-nl/app/com.athom.homeyscript/HomeyScript/) app?

I presume the Homeyscript menu icon doesn’t appear when the app is not installed.  
That said @Koen_Blank install the Homeyscript app again, maybe there was a glitch during the initial install.

Thank you. (Re)installing the app worked. I think I installed it however I am unsure. Should there be a homeyscript tab and buttons to add scripts?

Anyway it now works. I have the examples and the add script button behavior is changed.

Yes, there should be. Usually the page shows the prompt to install HomeyScript when you don’t have it installed, but it’s a bug in SHS so it just shows a blank page
