It is necessary to divide the <li> links in the sidebar ( .side-nav ) of the Materialize CSS framework into separate parts.
For example, so that there is a word (link to the article’s page) and a “+” icon in the same line (for example, a link to create a new article).
Like here , "Contacts", and next to "+".
<ul class="side-nav fixed> <li> <a href="#!">Sidebar Link</a> </li> </ul>
