The ID Generator extension provides a minimalistic sequential numeric ID generation function.

The wikitext {{#next_number:}} outputs 1 the first time it is used, then 2, etc.

Installable and usable without running MediaWiki's update.php maintenance script. Created as an alternative to the IDProvider extension since that extension cannot be installed via Composer and requires an extra database table.
