Answer by jbc for Extending uniformly continuous functions on subspaces to non-metrizable compactifications

The closure of $X$ in $Z$ is compact , so there is no hope if $f$ is not bounded. If it is bounded then so is its extension to the closure of $X$ in $Y$ and this gives a bounded uniformly continuous function on the closure which can be extended to a bounded continuous function on $Y$ by the Tietze extension theorem. This, in turn, extends to a continuous function on the Stone-čech compactification. You can then restrict the latter to the closure of $X$ in $Z$.
