Need to follow below steps to accurately make your module working with Magedelight_Base

1. Your module must have a seprate menu item

2. Your root level menu item must have the naming convension as below.

3. Add new item in menu.xml after above menu item.

4. in your etc/adminhtml/system.xml, your section must look like follow.

   md_section_{modulename} magedelight ...

5. create following file in your module. Path: {Vendor}/{Module}/view/adminhtml/web/css/source/ File: _module.less

   contents: @md-{<small_caps>modulename}-icons-admin__font-name-path: '@{baseDir}{Vendor}_{Module}/fonts/icon'; @md-{<small_caps>modulename}-icons-admin__font-name : '{Module}'; .lib-font-face( @family-name:@md-{<small_caps>modulename}-icons-admin__font-name, @font-path: @md-{<small_caps>modulename}-icons-admin__font-name-path, @font-weight: normal, @font-style: normal );

    .admin__menu .item-{<small_caps>modulename}-root-commonlyvisible > a:before,
    .admin__menu .item-{<small_caps>modulename}-root.parent.level-0 .submenu > .submenu-title:before,
    .config-nav-block .md_section_{<small_caps>modulename} a:before {
      	font-family: @md-{<small_caps>modulename}-icons-admin__font-name;
      	content: "{content to be taken from icomoon or appropriate library}";
      	padding-right: 8px;
    }
   

6. download relevent icon files from icomoon app. Filename should be as it is (icon.ext). icon.eot icon.svg icon.ttf icon.woff (copy it with icon.woff2)

   and place above files in following location. Path: {Vendor}/{Module}/view/adminhtml/web/fonts/

7. Your module acl.xml should look like this. So every module of Magedelight will fall into Base Resource.

                <resource id="Magento_Backend::stores">
                    <resource id="Magento_Backend::stores_settings">
                        <resource id="Magento_Config::config">
                            <resource id="Magedelight_Base::config_root">
                                <resource id="{Vendor}_{Module}::config_root" title="{Title}" sortOrder="{your_module_sortorder}" />
                            </resource>
                        </resource>
                    </resource>
                </resource>
            </resource>
        </resources>
    </acl>
   

8. update your module composer.json file with following content ... "require": { ... "magedelight/base": "*", ... }
