Solution

You should create your module like this.

registration.php

    <?php
\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
    \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
    'Outdoor_Configurator',
    __DIR__
);

etc/module.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="Outdoor_Configurator" setup_version="1.0.0">
        <sequence>
            <module name="Magento_Backend"/>
             <module name="Magento_Sales"/>
            <module name="Magento_Quote"/>
            <module name="Magento_Checkout"/>
            <module name="Magento_Cms"/>
        </sequence>
    </module>
</config>

etc/frontend/routes.xml

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/App/etc/routes.xsd">
    <router id="standard">
        <route id="configurator" frontName="configurator">
            <module name="Outdoor_Configurator" />
        </route>
    </router>
</config>

Block/Index/Index.php

<?php

namespace Outdoor\Configurator\Block\Index;


class Index extends \Magento\Framework\View\Element\Template {

    public function __construct(\Magento\Catalog\Block\Product\Context $context, array $data = []) {

        parent::__construct($context, $data);

    }


    protected function _prepareLayout()
    {
        return parent::_prepareLayout();
    }

}

Controller/Index/Index.php

<?php

namespace Outdoor\Configurator\Controller\Index;

class Index extends \Magento\Framework\App\Action\Action
{
    public function execute()
    {

        $this->_view->loadLayout();
        $this->_view->getLayout()->initMessages();
        $this->_view->renderLayout();
    }
}

view/frontend/templates/index/configurator_index_index.phtml

Hello Demo Page

view/frontend/layout/configurator_index_index.xml

<page xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" layout="1column" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/View/Layout/etc/page_configuration.xsd">
    <head>
        <title>Titlename</title>
    </head> 
    <body>
        <referenceContainer name="sidebar.main">
            <block class="Outdoor\Configurator\Block\Index\Sidebar" name="configurator_index_sidebar" before="-" template="Outdoor_Configurator::configurator_index_sidebar.phtml"/>
        </referenceContainer>

        <referenceContainer name="content">
            <block class="Outdoor\Configurator\Block\Index\Index" name="configurator_index_index" template="Outdoor_Configurator::configurator_index_index.phtml"/>
        </referenceContainer>
    </body>
</page>

Please check Now I have updated all code, with file name also.

OTHER TIPS

There are a few problems in your module:

  1. You have used Outdoor_Configurator in module.xml but in Controller, Block, and layout you have used Vendor_Module.

  2. registration.php is missing from the code you have shared.

  3. You have not mentioned the file names and their paths. There may be a problem in the file naming convention.

Update:

Problems found in module shared at https://transfernow.net/813mi1m90ghk.

  • The controller file name is Builtcatcollection.php.php, which is wrong. Notice .php twice.
  • Code under block file is the same as in the controller file.
  • Folder name View should be view (small case).
  • The code under layout file is wrong.

Instead of:

<block class="Codism\Configurator\Block\Index\Builtcatcollection" name="index.builtcatcollection" template="Outdoor_Configurator::index/builtcatcollection.phtml"/>

it should be like:

<block class="Outdoor\Configurator\Block\Index\Builtcatcollection" name="index.builtcatcollection" template="Outdoor_Configurator::index/builtcatcollection.phtml"/>
