Description

Does this feature exist in Emacs orgmode core?

Yes

Orgmode link

I don't see a lot of documentation around this but the source org-narrow-to-subtree function declaration is here. I learned about this through spacemacs and the orgmode layer they have there.

Feature value

It lets me hide everything except my current focus. I also use this heavily in workflowy.

Research direction

Start with the linked Emacs org.el source declaration for org-narrow-to-subtree, then inspect the existing subtree navigation and focus-related behavior in this Lua Neovim plugin. Done means users can narrow the view to the current subtree and widen it again, matching the described Org-mode workflow.
