iw is more recent, and iwconf is deprecated.
Quoth the docs:

iw is a new nl80211 based CLI configuration utility for
wireless devices. It supports all new drivers that have been
added to the kernel recently. The old tool iwconfing, which
uses Wireless Extensions interface, is deprecated and it's
strongly recommended to switch to iw and nl80211.

Here is a cheatsheet for iwconfig users seeking to migrate:
