Can someone explain to me how to edit this project or create something similar?

If you mean to modify the source code then you would need to do run-in-place installation and build linuxcnc on your local PC.

Position logger is a separate project by JT, so i do not know/think building LinuxCNC would help.
The issue is with old python used by it, so editing it to use python3 should be enough, although no idea how much work would that entail.

So, to get the source you would download the .deb folder using the wget command as described here:
jethornton.github.io/emclog/install.html
Then right click on the downloaded 'emclog_1.0.0_all.deb' and choose 'Extract Here'
In the extracted folder extract the folder 'data.tar.xz'
You will find the pyhton file 'emclog' in the extracted 'usr/bin' folder.
This file you will need to update to python3.


[edit]
You will also need the gui file 'emclog.ui' from the folder 'emclog_1.0.0_all/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/libemclog'

Just found the GitHub page for these two files:
github.com/jethornton/emclog/blob/master/emclog/src/emclog.ui

Hello
I am very new to Python programming
Would it be possible for you to give me a more complete explanation of how you did what you did or send me the files you edited?

I applied these changes
How do I create the installable file after that?

you can run it from a terminal with (make sure the file 'emclog.py' is marked as executable):

$ python3 <your_path_here>/emclog.py

#!/usr/bin/python3

import os, sys, math

if sys.version_info[0] > 3:
    raise Exception("Python 3 is required.")
I changed these program lines like this
ehsan@debian:~/Desktop$ python3 emclog.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/ehsan/Desktop/emclog.py", line 16, in <module>
    IN_AXIS = os.environ.has_key("AXIS_PROGRESS_BAR")
              ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
AttributeError: '_Environ' object has no attribute 'has_key'
ehsan@debian:~/Desktop$
I got this error
How do I fix it?

Just a few things to get you started, I copied 'emclog.ui' into my home directory and  I got the gui started with the following code (start Linuxcnc first):

Warning: Spoiler!

Note that this modification is not correct
[i]    def sendToAxis(self):

        sys.stdout.write(self.gcodeLW(0, 1))[/i]

but the original is also not working:
    def sendToAxis(self):

        sys.stdout.write(self.g_code.get(0.0, END))
