Emacs keeps indenting my \phrases tags, each new phrase gets an
additional indentation.
I want everything to stay at the same indentation level, like so:

\phrase

{}

{}

{}

\phrase

{}

{}

{}

\phrase

{}

{}

{}

In other words I don't need any indentation for any content between
\enumerate

Should I use M-x and disable the electric indenting mode temporary
while working on the document?

You could use .dir-locals.el to disable electric indent mode. Or
indeed just disable it for the tex mode.

If you're using AUCTeX, you could try adjusting LaTeX-indent-
environment-list.

Out of curiosity: did you mean to use `\item` in that enumeration? Is
`\phrase` an item-like command that you created?

Hack font with the gruvbox theme.

`(set-face-attribute 'default nil :font "Hack" :height 180)`

However, you should have the font installed on your computer.

Here's the GitHub page:
https://github.com/source-foundry/Hack/

Direct download link:
https://github.com/source-
foundry/Hack/releases/download/v3.003/Hack-v3.003-ttf.zip

On Unix-like systems, place the .ttf files under your home folder's
`.fonts` folder, like so:

    ~/.fonts/Hack-BoldItalic.ttf
    ~/.fonts/Hack-Regular.ttf
    ~/.fonts/...

To make sure the changes take effect log out of your desktop
environment or reboot.
