The counter is global for both monolingual and multilingual sites, and its initial value for each build is 1.
```go-html-template {file="layouts/page.html"}
{{ warnf "page.html called %d times" math.Counter }}
```
```text
WARN page.html called 1 times
WARN page.html called 2 times
WARN page.html called 3 times
```
Use this function to:
- Create unique warnings as shown above; the [`warnf`] function suppresses duplicate messages
- Create unique target paths for the `resources.FromString` function where the target path is also the cache key
> [!note]
> Due to concurrency, the value returned in a given template for a given page will vary from one build to the next. You cannot use this function to assign a static id to each page.
