 When the component is rendered, the `value` of the input element comes from the `CurrentValue` property. When the user types in the text box and changes element focus, the `onchange` event is fired and the `CurrentValue` property is set to the changed value. In reality, the code generation is more complex because `@bind` handles cases where type conversions are performed. In principle, `@bind` associates the current value of an expression with a `value` attribute and handles changes using the registered handler.
