<p>Using this way "nameSetInValidName" will be one character after "name"</p>
<code>&lt;Input @value=\{{this.name}} \{{on "input" this.validateName}} /&gt;</code><br />
<Input
  @value={{this.name}}
  {{on "input" this.validateName}}
/>
<hr />
<br />
<p>Using this was they will both be in sync</p>
<code>&lt;Input @value=\{{this.name}} @input=\{{this.validateName}} /&gt;</code><br />
<Input
  @value={{this.name}}
  @input={{this.validateName}}
/>

<hr />
<br />
Output:
<output>
	<p>name: {{this.name}}</p>
	<p>nameSetInValidateName: {{this.nameSetInValidateName}}</p>
</output>


{{#if this.error}}
	<p style="color: red;">
		{{this.error}} <br />
    Length is {{this.name.length}}
