Just as the names suggest the Federalist wanted a strong central government while the anti Federalist wanted a weaker central government and more power for states rights.

a strong central government, They were the colonial leaders in the US who wanted a strong central government for the new country. They were opposed by the anti-federalists who wanted to maintain the power of the states, because they felt a strong central government would exert too much control over its citizens' lives.
Did anti federalists want the states or central government to have more power?
Federalists favored the passage of the US Constitution. Anti-Federalists opposed passage because, among other things, they thought the Constitution gave too much power to the federal government at the expense of the state governments. So clearly the Federalists wanted stronger national government and the Anti-Federalists wanted a weaker national government (and, in a zero-sum game, stronger state governments). The ensuing discussion led to the Bill of Rights.
