I have cloned the repo of MoonBeam and run the chain as a "Development chain" but the chain is not producing blocks. Are there any reference links which i can follow to remove dependency from relay chain?

Moonbeam is an implementation of Frontier, an Ethereum compatibility layer for Substrate. Frontier is a codebase managed by the team behind Moonbeam and Wei Tang. You need not fork Moonbeam's repository. Simply take advantage of Frontier.
Check it out here:
Similar to the Basic Substrate Node template, there is a basic Frontier Substrate Node Template to start from which you will be able to produce blocks immediately:
That being said, why will you not want to be a parachain? The economic security is significantly lesser starting out as a solochain (Orders of magnitude lesser). But if you are keen to try it out as a testnet, by all means be a solochain for now :)

1A realistic reason. Small teams don't have enough backing assets to be a parachain(win the auction). Feb 17 at 6:00

@AurevoirXavier Yeah that is a valid gap for very small budget teams. With parathreads and new potential ways to commit proof-of-validity blocks on the relay chain (Polkadot) in the future, the barrier for backing assets can come down dramatically.– JoshFeb 19 at 8:26

@AurevoirXavier i need the consensus DPOS and EVM Compatibility with Unified accounts. That's why i wanted to implement MoonBeam para chain as Solo Chain. Feb 21 at 6:01
